Eggs!

[dizzydawnie]

Already I've noticed that eggs are probably the most versatile food in the Atkins diet for me!!

But how many a day is it safe to have? Any recommendations?

TIA x

Hello Dawnie... I don't think there's a limit but it's wise to eat everything in moderation

Yes Di, you're right! I will limit to 3 a day knowing that some days I may have less. They are just too damn useful!!

Thanks

Yes! I've certainly become to value eggs... I read somewhere that they were nigh on a perfect protein and should be classed as a super food.

I have never ever tried eggs at all (unless they've been baked in a cake.. o dear!) - so I am really looking forward to trying them when I start eating low carb - I BETTER like them or else haha!

A good way to eat eggs, and a very simple breakfast, is ham & egg cups - see my pic in the pictures of food thread x

I used to bake egg and bacon muffins years ago when I first did Atkins - line muffin tin with ham, crack in an egg, sprinkle with grated cheese. Used to make 2-4! Have couple in morning with some tinned tomatoes/mushrooms - also good to pack up and have cold in the day.

There's something so clean and fresh tasting about poached eggs.
