Whole food snacks with eggs | Get Cracking

Making home-cooked meals is one of the easiest way to include healthy, nutrient-dense whole foods, like eggs, into your daily menu. They're easy to prepare, delicious and packed with protein, vitamins and minerals. Get cracking with Carol's and Shannon's expert tips and tasty meal ideas.

For a scrumptious snack, make this muffin-tin frittata, inspired by Margherita pizza. Divide the frittata mixture among 12 greats muffin cups. Bake at 350°F (180°C) until the edges are set, about 10 minutes. 

For a deliciously simple snack, Carol loves egg salad scooped into crisp veggie vessels, such as red pepper halves, hollowed-out cucumbers and celery sticks. Check out more dietitian-inspired tasty meals and snacks on our site.

Try this tasty twist: mix hard-cooked egg yolks with mashed avocado instead of mayonnaise for a not-so-devilish egg. You can feel good about eating yolks! Shannon shares why on our website.

Hard-cooked eggs are a perfectly portable whole-food snack. Just peel and eat! Shannon’s tip: protein (eggs) + fibre (veggies) = long-lasting snacking satisfaction. More on maximizing the goodness of snacks in the video above.

When you need a heartier snack or maybe a mini meal, top a small whole wheat wrap with spinach, scrambled eggs, a sprinkle of cheddar cheese and a little salsa. Your taste buds will thank you. Your muscles will thank you too! Watch Carol explain above.
