Easy Egg Recipe: A fabulous frittata that is easy to make!

I am so happy that nutritional science has exonerated eggs because I love them. Like love love them!

Boiled, poached, scrambled, over-easy, muffins, quiches and this amazing frittata that Iā€™m sharing with you today are just a few of the ways you can turn this liquid gold into a fabulous meal.

And donā€™t just eat chicken eggs. Quail, duck and goose are all great sources of Omega 3 as well. Confession: Iā€™ve never tried goose egg! Have you? If you can find quail eggs you can substitute 3-4 for 1 large chicken egg. They contain more phosphorus, which is essential for cell membranes, and are high in folate.

The key, of course, to winning with this food item is choosing free-range/run eggs. They contain more vitamin A, E and Omega 3 then eggs from confined farming practices.

Nutrient Snapshot of Eggs

– These little powerhouses boost mental performance because they contain choline and other b vitamins and fatty acids necessary to support your nervous system. I start most of my days with eggs because they
are a protein-rich breakfast that improves memory and mental
performance throughout the day.

– Eggs help build strong bones. They are one of the few food sources of
Vitamin D and are rich in phosphorus. Combined they provide the building
blocks for healthy bones.

– They are an excellent source of antioxidants containing lutein, zeaxanthine,
tryptophan and tyrosine, which are important for cancer prevention and heart
disease.
