Fried Eggs on a Diet - No Problem

Everyone knows the frying pan is a no no, whilst you are trying to lose weight. Even if you do enjoy a couple of fried eggs, the guilt afterwards will depress you into thinking that you will never lose any weight.

Here is the secret to eating fried eggs, enjoying fried eggs, and knowing that its healthy for you.

OK it might seem wrong, but just use water instead of cooking oil.

Bring some water to the boil on a high heat in the frying pan, make sure the water is boiling, then as normal just crack the egg and drop it into the frying pan, in the same way you normally fry eggs.

Result is a lovely fried egg, that just tastes of egg, instead of tasting of burnt oil.

It is a quick way to have a healthy meal without the guilt of consuming oil, or fat as part of your diet.

Why not try grilled bacon, grilled tomato (just cut a tomato in half, add a little pepper and place on the grill), along with a fried egg (fried in water) and a potato waffle of course grilled.
What a wonderful healthy fry up, (wink wink).

Eggs contain 5 grams of fat, but three and half grams of this fat is good fat, and they actually help to reduce your body cholesterol.
