Chinese cuisine often features one egg cracked into a "fried rice" dish. Similarly, the French feature one hard boiled egg in their "Salade Nicoise."It makes a lot of sense if you think about it and you want to get in the habit of looking at how traditional recipes combine foods.Hard Boiled Egg Nutrient Summary:They are a a very good source of selenium, iodine, and vitamin B2 and a good source of protein, molybdenum, phosphorous, vitamin B5, vitamin B12 and vitamin D.They are a good food for weight loss as well.

Matching Foods:"Eggs are a good source of low-cost high-quality protein, providing 5.5 grams of protein (11.1% of the daily value for protein) in one egg for a caloric cost of only 68 calories. The structure of humans and animals is built on protein. We rely on animal and vegetable protein for our supply of amino acids, and then our bodies rearrange the nitrogen to create the pattern of amino acids we require."
