Tip of the Day: Build a Better Breakfast With Eggs
May 17, 2010— -- Eggs are rich in essential amino acids and nutrients for your body. So what can you add to your eggs to get more vitamins, more nutrients and more taste?
Fresh vegetables are a great way to add more nutrients and vitamins to a breakfast. Omelettes can be a good choice if you use egg whites. If you prefer, use one whole egg and two egg whites; you'll still consume fewer calories, less fat and less cholesterol than using whole eggs alone.
Reduced-fat cheese is much better these days, and Kraft 2 percent reduced-fat shredded cheddar can be a good choice.
Or, try forgoing cheese altogether and load up with lots of vegetables instead.
Avoid adding bacon or sausage; you'll add lots of fat, calories, and sodium if you do.
