About Ovo mexido

Ovo Mexido, or Brazilian scrambled eggs, is a simple yet satisfying dish rooted in Brazilian cuisine. Made primarily with eggs, salt, and butter or oil, it often incorporates fresh ingredients like tomatoes, onions, and herbs, adding vibrant flavors and nutrients. This dish is a quick source of high-quality protein, supporting muscle health and providing sustained energy. Eggs also offer essential vitamins such as B12 and choline, promoting brain and heart health. When prepared with minimal oil and paired with vegetables, Ovo Mexido is a wholesome option for any meal. However, its nutritional profile can vary depending on preparation methods; excess butter, oil, or salty seasonings may reduce its healthfulness. Versatile and easily customized, Ovo Mexido embodies the rich yet simple flavors of Brazilian cooking while being adaptable for diverse dietary preferences.
