Sunnyside eggs are a classic preparation of fried eggs characterized by their bright, unbroken yolk that remains runny and sits atop tender, lightly cooked whites. Originating from Western cuisine, this method of cooking preserves the visual appeal and rich flavor of the yolk while offering versatility in pairing with various dishes. Sunnyside eggs are a good source of high-quality protein, essential vitamins such as B12, and minerals like selenium. They also provide choline, which supports brain health and metabolism. However, they can be high in cholesterol, particularly from the yolk, making portion control important for individuals managing heart health or dietary cholesterol. Cooking them with minimal oil or using heart-healthy options like olive oil can reduce calorie and fat content. As a fundamental breakfast item, Sunnyside eggs deliver both flavor and nutrition while supporting a balanced meal when paired with whole-grain toast or fresh vegetables.
