kylokoji Posted September 7, 2016 Share Posted September 7, 2016 Hi everyone, I'm planning my Whole 30 adventure, which I'm very excited about. Upon reading some of the breakfast recipes that require eggs, I realized that most of the egg recipes call for 4-6 eggs. I'm wondering if I'm supposed to eat all 6 eggs for one breakfast, or are some supposed to be for leftovers? Hypothetically, if I were to follow the 7-day meal plan, I would be eating 18+ eggs in one week. I thought that was a bit much, plus the meal plan doesn't call for breakfast as leftovers for future meals. Am I misunderstanding something?! Can anyone kindly advise? Thanks all! Take care Sincerely, Ky, AKA The Whole 30 Noob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators ShannonM816 Posted September 7, 2016 Moderators Share Posted September 7, 2016 In general, a serving of eggs when they're your only protein source I'd as many whole eggs as you can hold in one hand. That's probably 3-4 for most people, possibly more. If there's some other protein, like sausage or chicken, you might have less eggs. I can't remember if the recipes in the book were meant to serve one or two, but either adjust the recipes or plan for leftovers to suit your personal serving size.

Moderators Tom Denham Posted September 7, 2016 Moderators Share Posted September 7, 2016 I have been eating about 24 eggs per week for years and my doctor is thrilled with my blood work/health. There is no need to fear eating eggs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
