Two eggs over easy is a classic breakfast preparation found across many cuisines, especially in American diner culture. This dish features eggs cooked in a lightly oiled or buttered pan, flipped briefly to lightly cook the yolk without solidifying it, offering a runny, velvety texture. Eggs are nutrient-dense, providing high-quality protein, vitamins like B12, D, and choline, and minerals such as selenium and phosphorus. The yolk also contains healthy fats and antioxidants like lutein for eye health. While eggs are an excellent source of nutrition, the healthiness of the dish depends on added fats like butter or oil, which can increase saturated fat content, and accompanying sides often served, such as bacon or hash browns. For a balanced option, pair two eggs over easy with whole-grain toast and fresh vegetables. This dish is simple, versatile, and can easily be adapted to suit various dietary preferences.
