Ham and eggs is a classic dish featuring savory slices of ham paired with eggs, typically fried, scrambled, or poached. This simple, protein-packed combination is a staple in many Western cuisines, particularly popular as a hearty breakfast item in the United States and Europe. The dish is rich in essential nutrients such as protein, vitamins B12 and D, iron, and selenium, which support muscle health, immune function, and energy production. However, it's important to note that ham can be high in sodium and saturated fat, which may not be ideal for those managing heart health or watching their sodium intake. Choosing lower-sodium ham or lean options can improve its nutritional profile. Often served alongside toast, fresh vegetables, or fruit, ham and eggs can be part of a balanced meal when consumed in moderation and paired with nutrient-dense sides.
