Inspiration: 25+ Nutritious Egg Meals to Feed Your Family
There is ALWAYS a carton of eggs in my fridge – they are nutritious and economical inclusion in a healthy balanced diet. Eggs provide at least 11 essential vitamins and minerals including many B vitamins, folate, selenium and iron. They are also high in protein and a source of long chain omega 3 fatty acids important for brain function and development.
Not sure what to cook with a carton full of eggs? When we get stuck for inspiration there’s no one better to ask than the community of One Handed Cooks on our Facebook page << join us today.
Earlier we asked, “What’s your favourite family meal to cook using eggs? Inspire us please?”
(Note many of our family style meals can be adapted into finger food versions for toddlers and even purees/mash for babies.)
