8 of the best ways to eat eggs on the go

• A single egg has six grams of protein.
• You can add it to lots of different foods for extra protein.
• These recipes allow you to take your eggs on the go.

Eggs are a cheap and easy way to add extra protein to your diet. A single egg contains six grams of protein to help you get closer to your daily protein goals (these vary by body weight and level of physical activity). They're also very versatile, making them excellent options for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.

If you're looking to add more eggs to your diet but don't want to sit down for an omelet every day, here are eight ways you can eat eggs on the go.

Hard-boil them.

This one is a classic for a reason. Hard-boiled eggs on their own can be an easy snack and a great source of protein. Simply boil them, peel them (or leave the shell on if you'd rather transport them that way), and pop them into your bag for easy transport. 

Bake some egg muffins.

Another option for portable eggs are egg "muffins," no muffin required. There are dozens of recipes out there, including this one from Delish, but simply crack a raw egg into a muffin tin, mix in your favorite veggies, meats, and cheeses, and bake them. 

Then you'll have perfectly portable egg breakfasts you can reheat for a week. 

Make an egg-salad sandwich.

Sandwiches are the quintessential lunch food for several reasons — they're easy to make, transportable, and filling, so it's no surprise that an egg salad sandwich is a good way to get your eggs on the go. Simply hard boil some eggs, mix them with mayo and mustard, add pickles, olives, avocados or anything else you'd like, put the mixture on bread and voila.
