About Egg in light olive oil

Egg in Light Olive Oil is a simple dish combining eggs, lightly fried in olive oil, often associated with Mediterranean cuisine. This preparation highlights the egg's creamy texture and the olive oil's subtle flavor. Packed with high-quality protein, eggs support muscle repair and maintenance, while offering essential vitamins like B12, D, and biotin. Olive oil, especially in its extra virgin form, is rich in healthy monounsaturated fats and antioxidants that promote heart health and reduce inflammation. The dish is low in carbohydrates, making it suitable for low-carb diets, though moderation is advised due to the calorie content. While this combination is nutrient-dense, excessive oil can add extra calories, so opting for light amounts balances health benefits. Ideal as a breakfast or a quick meal, it exemplifies simplicity without compromising nutrition.
