The Way You Cook Eggs Matters
An egg doesn’t automatically become unhealthy because it’s an egg.
But the ingredients added during cooking can significantly change the nutritional profile of the meal.
For example, frying eggs with large amounts of butter or serving them alongside processed meats can add substantial saturated fat and sodium.
Healthier options can include:
- Boiled eggs
- Poached eggs
- Eggs cooked with vegetables
- Scrambled eggs with minimal added fat
- Omelets filled with vegetables
You don’t have to completely avoid butter, cheese, or other ingredients. The key is moderation
