Two hard-boiled eggs are a simple, protein-packed snack or meal component commonly enjoyed across various cuisines worldwide. Originating as one of the oldest methods of preparing eggs, hard-boiling involves cooking eggs in their shells until the yolks and whites are fully set. Each egg provides about 6 grams of high-quality protein, essential vitamins like B12, riboflavin, and choline, and minerals such as selenium and phosphorus. They are naturally low in carbohydrates and free of added sugar. While rich in nutrients, hard-boiled eggs do contain cholesterol, about 185 mg per egg, which some individuals may monitor depending on dietary needs. The absence of added fat makes them a healthier option compared to fried preparations. Whether eaten plain, seasoned, or as a topping in salads and bowls, hard-boiled eggs are a versatile and nourishing choice for balanced diets.
