Eggs contain a high amount of protein, which makes them great as a snack, or in salads. Eating plenty of protein is vital when you’re following a low-carb diet plan for weight loss. Do you still have a few hard-boiled eggs left over from the holidays? Tired of eating them? Try them in different ways, such as the delicious coleslaw recipe we share below.
This coleslaw makes a delicious side dish, or can even be used as a topping for a grilled meat of your choice. Either way, you can definitely enjoy this recipe as part of a balanced diet - guilt-free - while losing weight.
