Healthy lunch recipes with an egg. Mostly low carb

Eggs are always delicious, for breakfast, dinner and lunch. With Easter coming up, I thought it would be fun to post some healthy lunch recipes with egg.

Low-carb eating

I have been eating low-carb for a few years now. And although in a stew I just eat potatoes, on other days I leave out the potatoes, pasta and rice and have extra vegetables. For lunch I look for healthy recipes and other than bread.

This way I also get lots of vegetables for lunch.

Easter is coming up

Egg for lunch is of course a great idea and with Easter coming up, I thought it would be fun to post some healthy lunch recipes with egg. With this of course still the note that too many eggs is not healthy, but is not that with everything where ’too’ stands for.

Healthy Lunch recipes with egg

One of my favorites healthy lunch recipes is that of Zucchini with Egg and Emmental. The original recipe is from one of Pascale Naessens’ cookbooks, but I adapted it to my own taste. Below is this recipe, as well as more healthy lunch recipes with egg:

I stay at an excellent weight and I find the benefit is that in addition to delicious food, I no longer crave sugar.
