I have eaten a dozen eggs a week for most of my adult life.
Even during the years they were demonized due to cholesterol
content, they were still the cheapest source of complete protein
and other nutrients available. Still are.

We love eggs over easy, egg salad, and deviled eggs, in
addition to omelets, scrambled eggs with ham or salsa and
cheddar, French Toast, and boiled eggs in salads with things
like kidney beans, black olives, bits of ham, tuna, and cheese.

I think eggs keep our skin, nails, hair, and eyes healthy, too.

The idea of cool looking eggs appeals!
