Snacks with eggs are brilliant, a great way to satisfy hunger between meals, as they are such a good source of protein! One egg is about 6.3 grams of protein.

Each week, one of my favorite things to meal prep for snacks is a savory recipe with the main ingredient being eggs. Here in this blog post, I've compiled a list of the best healthy egg recipes to make and then eat as a wholesome snack.

Fun, Exciting, & Delicious Egg Snack Recipes

These egg snack ideas are perfect to prep ahead and keep in the fridge or the freezer when you need to grab a nourishing and filling snack! Enjoy these easy recipes!

Farmers' Market Quiche

A beautiful egg pie filled with onions, cherry tomatoes, zucchini and cheese! This quiche makes 8 servings, the best part? It tastes good cold but it also reheats super easily to make the perfect warm snack.

Boiled Eggs

Hard-boiled eggs are a go-to snack at our house! They are so easy to prep as busy parents and pack along on hikes, to school, or to work. Boiled eggs are so versatile. I compiled a list of all the things to eat with boiled eggs!

I may be biased, but I think this is the easiest recipe for boiled eggs that peel well!

Easy Veggie Egg Bites

These are simple to prep ahead of time and store in the fridge or the freezer for a quick bite to eat! Make these little egg muffins with whatever fresh veggies (broccoli, bell peppers, mushrooms, or spinach) you have at home this week!

This is my personal favorite way to snack prep before a baby comes - make a triple batch of these egg bites in muffin pans and pop them in the freezer!

Spinach and Feta Quesadilla

Next level quesadilla, not just cheese, but add some eggs to make this a high protein bite to fill you up! Make these with whole wheat or corn tortillas quickly in your frying pan.

What Are the Best Eggs to Buy?

For the best quality eggs buy pasture-raised eggs (according to humnutrition.com) because the chickens have room to roam outside, they have access to clean water.

Pasture-raised is not only the best for the chickens, but these eggs would most likely be the most nutrient-dense. Here's an article to learn more about the words you will find on egg cartons at the grocery store.

I buy and eat local small farm eggs whenever possible. They can be hard to find, but the taste and bright yellow yolk speak to the quality of the eggs!

To find local farm eggs in your area ask in Facebook community groups or at the health food store!
