Eggs are a rich source of high-quality protein (with just 1 egg containing 6.3 grams), essential amino acids, and various vitamins and minerals, including vitamins A, D, E, and K. The yolks are particularly rich in choline, vital for cell membrane health and cholesterol regulation as well as they help to make the neurotransmitter acetylcholine which is important for memory and muscles. Eggs provide complete proteins necessary for muscle repair and growth, making these bites suitable for post-exercise nutrition. ​ 

Spinach is a nutrient-dense leafy green, abundant in vitamins A, C, E, and K, as well as folate, magnesium, iron, and potassium.

Spinach’s magnesium, potassium and calcium work with sodium in the body to regulate water retention and prevent high blood pressure. Additionally, spinach is rich in antioxidants that combat inflammation and oxidative stress, contributing to overall health. ​
