10. Eggs
In addition to being tasty, eggs are a versatile source of protein. They’re also packed with important nutrients choline and selenium. Plus, one study showed that starting the day with eggs at breakfast may help you stay lean.
One way to prepare them would be to mix one whole egg with egg whites to keep the protein up but the cholesterol and saturated fat in check. Want a quick meal post workout? Whip up a frittata.
