Delicious egg dishes

AN egg is a miracle of nature, delivering taste and goodness in a neat package. An average-sized egg contains about 10% of all the protein you need for the day, which is why eggs are placed in the Meats category in the Food Guide Pyramid. They also pack a pretty good vitamin and mineral punch.

Sadly, they come with one caution: eggs contain cholesterol, just over half your daily allowance in the average medium-sized egg. So do tuck in but be sensible. What’s also lovely about eggs is that you can order them in all sorts of styles. Next time you have breakfast or lunch in a café, do consider one of these classic egg dishes.
