When it comes to healthy goodness, it\u2019s hard to beat eggs. Eggs have so many nutrients that we love, from 13 grams of protein in two large eggs to important nutrients like iron, choline, vitamin A and vitamin E. One of the nutrients that eggs are low on is carbohydrates: there\u2019s only 1 gram of carbohydrate in two eggs, making them an ideal food to eat if you\u2019re following a lower carbohydrate diet. While we still love pairing eggs with healthy carbs like fruit, whole grains, starchy vegetables and milk, if you\u2019re looking for low carb keto-friendly options we have you covered!<\/p>\n
