Why Eggs Are The New Kale

And I'm not mad about it.

Why Eggs Are The New Kale

Kale used to be the "it" food—not only could you make almost anything out of it, kale is also hella good for you. It's green, so its packed with antioxidants and other good things as well as being rich in fiber. It also has tons of vitamins, like Vitamin C, A, K, and B6. Kale is good in salads, as chips, sautéed, and massaged. Even Beyonce loves kale.

But kale should watch its back. Avocado stole the spotlight for awhile (with good reason), but it's clear that the new hip way to eat anything is to put an egg on it.

Not only are eggs delicious, they are also arguably just as healthy as the former food king and green leaf, kale. Eggs are high in protein and Vitamin D, B2, B6, and B12, and provide selenium. Eggs yolks have gotten a bad rap for their cholesterol, but as long as you stick to one egg a day, you are in the clear.

Eggs are are all over foodies Instagram's and there is even a yolk porn hashtag.

Eggs are very versatile—they can be eaten with any meal, at any time of day.

Eggs can be for breakfast.

Eggs can go on toast.

They can go on noodles.

Or soup.

Put an egg on a pizza, trust me, you won't be disappointed.

Up your Taco Tuesday game with brunch style tacos with eggs.

You can put an egg on top of almost any vegetable and make it great.

You can even put an egg on top of kale.


You really can't go wrong. So head out to your local farmers market or food co-op, get yourself a dozen eggs, and get crackin'.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
