A Dozen Healthy Egg Recipes

I've rounded up a dozen healthy egg recipes for you to enjoy.

Eggs are an incredible and super versatile food to have on hand.

Not only are they delicious, but they're filled with nutrients and antioxidants like protein, vitamin D, choline, selenium, iron, and carotenoids among others that are all important for human health.

While they're most commonly used for breakfast, they can also be great for snacks, appetizers, lunches, and dinners and can easily be added to salads.

Eggs are the perfect all-day food, so eat up!

Healthy Egg Recipes

Copycat Starbucks Egg Bites

These copycat Starbucks egg bites are slow cooked in the oven, yet reminiscent of tender sous vide breakfast bites with ham, bell peppers and a flavorful egg base.

They're pretty darn close to the real thing, but you can make them at home with your favorite mix-ins, and for a lot less money.

Grown-Up Deviled Eggs

These grown-up deviled eggs aren't reserved for just the holidays.

Made with whole grain mustard and horseradish, they pack a flavorful punch and take a classic recipe to a whole new level of good.

You can even layer on a few toppings like bacon, chives, freshly cracked black pepper and more.

Perfect for a healthy appetizer, snack or side option!

You can even enjoy it without the bread or on top of crackers instead!
