Hard-Boiled Eggs
Hard-boiled eggs are whole eggs cooked in their shells until both the whites and yolks solidify, creating a portable protein source with extended freshness. They provide all nine essential amino acids and are particularly rich in choline for brain health and selenium for immune function. The cooking process requires no added fats, preserving their nutrient density while making them a convenient option for meal prep, salads, or snacks, though the yolk’s cholesterol content may warrant moderation for some dietary plans.
