Cool fact! Eggs are one of the few foods that have Vitamin D naturally. . Vitamin D is fat-soluble which means that the fat found in the yolks will help to absorb Vitamin D better. . A lot of people know that Vitamin D works with calcium to build strong bones, but this super vitamin does so much more than just that! ... . Vitamin D has anti-inflammatory properties and helps keep your immune system in tip-top shape. It can play a role in protecting against certain cancers and in keeping your heart working well. . Make sure to eat the yolks that’s where all the vitamin D is found! . Looking for a way to incorporate more yolks in your diet? Why not try our Spicy Chicken Noodle Bowl topped with soft-cooked eggs? . . . . . . . . #eggs #getcracking #eggrecipes #putaneggonit #eggsnthings #breakfastfood #proteinfoods #runnyyolk #cookingideas #simplemealideas #foodstagram #healthyeating #foodphotograph #quicklunch #quickaneasymeals #thenewhealthy #healthymealprep #noodlelover #spicynoodle

(sponsored post) . Hey, parents, we all know iron is vital for the growth and development of your kids, but did you know the iron found in eggs is easy to absorb? . Yup, eggs are a source of heme iron (found in animal products), which our bodies can use more easily than the non-heme iron from plant sources. ... . We need iron to carry oxygen to our cells, which explains why kids with low iron are likely to feel tired and irritable and struggle to focus at school. A child with adequate iron has more energy for active play, grows and learns well, and generally feels good, too. . Iron is a pretty darn important mineral, if you ask me! . A good way I found to get my kids to eat eggs at breakfast is to make cheesy scrambled-egg burritos. Kids and teens love foods they can eat with their hands. . Good to know: All the iron and half the protein of an egg are found in the yolk, so enjoy the whole egg just like Mother Nature intended! . What else would you like to know about eggs? If you like this post, pls share it! . . . . #getcracking #iron #eggrecipes #kidshealth #cookingideas #thecookfeed #simplemealideas #canadasfoodguide #eggs #putaneggonit #eggsnthings #breakfastfood #proteinfoods #mealideas #eatingforhealth #healthyfoodideas See more
