Creative Recipes Using Leftover Hard Boiled Eggs

Every clean eater needs a quick quality protein source on those days when life’s craziness is out of control. For me, it’s hard boiled eggs to the rescue. Each egg offers 6g muscle-making, hanger-squashing protein and only take about 12 minutes to cook to perfection – and if I meal prep eggs earlier in the week, it’s just a lickity-split matter of grabbing a couple out of the fridge.
