| Love 'em or hate 'em, there's no denying that eggs are incredibly nutritious. They're loaded with vitamins, minerals, high quality protein, good fats, and other micronutrients. And while they are high in dietary cholesterol, studies show that eating them doesn't increase blood cholesterol levels in most people. | Personally, eggs are a big part of my diet. I absolutely love making egg tacos, which are just scrambled eggs with cheese inside corn tortillas. Below, registered dietitians share their favorite ways to cook this one-of-a-kind food. | | | | Enjoy! Ginger Wojcik Newsletter Editor, Healthline | | | Written by Ginger Wojcik December 5, 2024 • 3 min read | | | | | | Q: | What's your favorite way to cook eggs?? | | A: | "Fried and put on a sandwich with cheese." — Lindsay Mahar, MS, RDN, Wellos Coach
"I love an over medium egg where the yolk is a nice jelly on the inside. Or if I'm on the go, I batch-make cheese-and-veggie breakfast burritos (with chorizo tofu!) that always hit the spot." — Mohini Bhakta, MBA, RDN, CDCES
"I absolutely love to put a sunny-side-up egg on different dishes, such as burgers, BLTs, a stir-fry with rice and veggies, etc. The yolk adds a lot of depth and richness to meals. And I always feel like a pro when I can make the egg without the yolk breaking!" — Kirsten Seele, MFN, RD, LD, NBC-HWC, Wellos Coach
"Scrambled with cheese!" — Jessica Sandoz, MS, RDN, LDN, CDCES
"I'm a big breakfast sandwich fan, so I'm all about frying eggs in a skillet with a little avocado oil and serving them over sourdough bread with avocado slices, a dash of hot sauce, and a sprinkle of everything bagel seasoning." — Kelli McGrane, MS, RD
"Scrambled! It's quick and easy. It's yummy with some shredded cheddar cheese on top. I like fried eggs (especially on an open-faced sandwich), but I haven't mastered flipping the egg without it just becoming a crumbled-up blob." — Annie Hibbs, CPPM, MS, RD, LD
"Scrambled with pepper, salt, and hot sauce!" — Leah Maschino, MBA, RDN | | Want to learn more about food, diets, cooking, or some other nutrition subject?

I'm not sure how you would eat one of these without using an egg topper, to be honest. I like this one in particular because it's made out of stainless steel, and it has a decently high rating on Amazon. (Heads-up: The topper doesn't come with the egg cup, so you may want to consider adding that to your cart too.) | | Every product we recommend has gone through either Healthline's or Optum Store's vetting processes.
