About Eggs in the nest

Eggs in the Nest is a classic breakfast dish that combines simplicity and comfort. Originating from American cuisine, it involves cooking an egg within a slice of bread with a hole cut out in the center. Typically prepared by pan-frying, the dish features a crispy, golden bread exterior and a warm, runny yolk in the middle. Eggs provide a rich source of high-quality protein, vitamins, and minerals, including vitamin D and choline, which support muscle health, bone strength, and brain function. The bread adds carbohydrates for energy but can vary in nutritional value depending on whether whole grain, white, or enriched varieties are used. While Eggs in the Nest can be made healthier by choosing whole-grain bread and limiting added butter or oil, it can also be adjusted to fit indulgent preferences. It's a versatile dish that's quick, economical, and widely enjoyed.
