Eggs are a very good source of inexpensive, high quality protein. More than half the protein of an egg is found in the egg white. Eggs are rich sources of selenium, vitamin D, B6, B12 and minerals such as zinc, iron and copper.
Additionally, avocados are loaded with nutrients such as Vitamin C, vitamin K, vitamin B and E. They contain quite a bit of potassium and dietary fibre.
