Huevos Rellenos, or stuffed eggs, are a versatile dish deeply rooted in Spanish and Latin American cuisine. Typically made by halving hard-boiled eggs, removing the yolks, and combining them with flavorful ingredients such as mayonnaise, mustard, spices, or finely chopped vegetables like onion or peppers. This mixture is then spooned back into the egg whites for a satisfying and visually appealing appetizer. High in protein from eggs, they provide essential nutrients like Vitamin B12 and selenium. However, their healthiness depends on the filling; options like using plain Greek yogurt instead of mayonnaise can reduce fat content and boost nutritional value. While delicious and nutrient-rich, Huevos Rellenos can be calorie-dense and high in cholesterol, particularly when paired with creamy or rich fillings, so moderation is key for a balanced diet.
