Are Eggs good for you?
Eggs were given a bad rep for a long time. For years I tried to avoid eating too many eggs because I always read that eggs cause cholesterol.
In this article by Chris Kresser, he debunks this theory in more detail, but if you are asking the question, are too many eggs bad for you? The short answer is no.
Eggs are high in the B-vitamin choline, which plays a vital role in memory and cognition and protects heart health too.
Ingredients
Prep time: 25 minutes
Cook time: 35 minutes
10 Eggs, pasture-raised
1 cup coconut milk
1 tbsp sea salt
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 red onion, diced
2 tbsp fresh parsley
1 tsp onion powder
1 tsp garlic powder
1/4 cup kalamata olives, halved
2 cups sweet potato, grated
2 cups kale, finely chopped (substitute with baby spinach, if you prefer)
Method
Preheat your oven to 170C/350F and grease your baking dish with either ghee or coconut oil.

Add all the remaining ingredients into the mixture and combine.
Pour the egg mixture into your greased baking dish.
