The Perfect Hard Boiled Egg

The hard boiled egg is where fast food meets healthy food! A quick and easy source of protein, with approximately 6 grams of protein and 60 calories per egg. Perfect addition to any meal, or even on it’s own as a snack.

Here is my quick and easy recipe to help you make the perfect hard boiled eggs every time!

Ingredients

• Bowl with ice cold water

Directions

1. Place all 6 eggs in a large saucepan with water, allow water to cover eggs by approximately 1 inch.

2. Cover your pan with lid and bring water to a boil over high heat.

3. Once your water is boiling, set a timer for 7 minutes (or longer depending on your perfect egg - see below) and turn the heat down to medium-high heat.

4. After your desired time transfer the eggs to your large bowl of ice cold water.

5. Let the eggs cool for about 4 minutes, or until they are cool to the touch, then peel and serve!
