The Perfect Hard Boiled Egg

SH here & I am a big fan of hard boiled eggs for snacks during the work week. They are super filling, have the good fats for you, great for your heart and full of vitamins for your bod to use all day.

I always kind of just threw the eggs in boiling water and hoped for the best. But thanks to Pinterest, I found the recipe to make the perfect hard boiled egg. No more eggs cracking and exploding in hot water - I can't eat them when they are gross.


This is the genius blogger with the perfect hard boiled egg recipe: Foodie Army Wife
- The trick is to keep the eggs in the pot as the water starts to boil so they can adjust to the hot temp without cracking
- Cooling the eggs down ASAP is also very important AND IT MAKES IT SO EASY TO PEEL!!


I found a great article about how awesome hard boiled eggs are - here are some highlights below but be sure to check out the whole article!
1. Good Fats: Replacing saturated and trans fats as much as possible with monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats stabilizes your blood cholesterol levels and lowers your overall risk of heart disease

2. High Protein: Hard-boiled eggs are naturally high in protein. You need protein to build muscle mass, but it also helps repair all tissues in your body and provides structure for cellular walls.

3. Eye Health: One of the major vitamins in eggs is vitamin A. This vitamin is a component of a protein that absorbs light in your retinas, protects membranes around the cornea and lessens your risk of night blindness. 

4. Strong Bones: Hard-boiled eggs provide vitamin D to keep your bones and teeth strong. Vitamin D promotes the absorption of calcium and regulates calcium levels in your blood. This process ensures that your skeleton gets the calcium it needs for strength and structure.
