About Egg, whole, cooked, hard-boiled
A versatile and nutrient-dense food, this staple is often a go-to for those seeking a quick, protein-rich meal. Each serving provides about 12.6 grams of high-quality protein, making it an excellent option for muscle repair and satiety. It also contains a modest amount of healthy fats—around 10.6 grams per 100 grams—along with essential vitamins and minerals such as vitamin B12, selenium, and choline, which support brain health and energy metabolism.

In the kitchen, this food is incredibly adaptable. Hard-cooked, it can be sliced into salads, mashed for sandwiches, or enjoyed as a simple snack. It's also a key ingredient in dishes like deviled eggs, egg salad, and as a topping for grain bowls or avocado toast.
