Listen Later

I wasn’t sure if we could talk about eggs for an entire podcast episode, but I was wrong!  From producing eggs in your own backyard to the many ways you can include them in your diet, there is plenty to discuss about this amazing superfood.  Lisa Steele is an expert backyard chicken keeper and has just released a cookbook all about using eggs in your kitchen, so I knew she’d be the perfect guest for this conversation.  You might be surprised at the many directions our conversation takes!  Whether you are raising a backyard flock of chickens or just want some new ideas for incorporating eggs into your diet, there is something for everyone in this episode.

In this episode, we cover:

  • What egg carton labels actually mean and how to know what to prioritize in the grocery store
  • How to start sourcing your eggs from outside of the grocery store
  • A discussion on the nutritional profile of eggs and why they are a perfect food
  • Other types of eggs you can eat besides chicken eggs and how they compare
  • All about cooking eggs– what fats to use, what pans to use
  • Walking through classic egg recipes with a unique spin
  • Addressing concerns about consuming raw eggs
  • Various methods for preserving and storing eggs
  • Why you might want to feed egg shells to your chickens and how to do so
  • The most common mistakes people make when cooking eggs
