The good old egg is an excellent source of protein. I always order scrambled eggs or an omelet when I go out to brunch, but I know many women who ditch the yolks and only order egg whites.
Although most of the calories, fat, and cholesterol come from the yolk, it's also very nutritious, containing protein, calcium, vitamin D, and folate.

They're cage-free, organic, and pre-cooked and peeled, so if you enjoy eggs for breakfast, in your salad at lunch, or as a pre-workout snack, you don't have to boil or peel their shells off.
