I get it—eggs are expensive. But for what they add to meals, they’re worth it. (Can you tell I went to L’Oréal this week?) An egg can turn a bowl of veggies into a satisfying meal that keeps you full all afternoon. Poach or cook it over easy so the yolk adds a creamy, delicious sauce to take it to the next level. When you think of all you’re saving by eating leftovers from the night before, those eggs don’t seem as expensive after all.
