This recipe provides an excellent example of how to get healthy fats, such as those found in extra-virgin olive oil and avocado, with clean protein, such as that found in eggs (especially if they’re organic), in a single dish. It also provides an array of micronutrients, particularly vitamins A, B2 (riboflavin), B12 and D.
