During this festive period you could enjoy having egg boats for breakfast filled with different mixtures.

I decided to boil two eggs and ditch they yolk.

The perfect hard-boiled egg requires to be pierced on top with a needle in order to perforate the air cell and to avoid the shell to break upon boiling.The boiling water should either contain salt or a drop of white vinegar to help the egg white cook faster so that it doesn’t come out of the egg.

Half the eggs and fill each one with a mixture of two slices of turkey and a slice of cheese (you could also add 1/2 tsp of mustard).Top them with whole wheat crackers and enjoy them on the go!

Remember that:

Egg whites are fat free and contain most of the proteins whereas egg yolks contain all the fat and cholesterol!

1 Egg white = 17 calories

1 Egg yolk = 60 Calories
