As November comes to an end so does my partnership with Eggland’s Best and the Pink Dozen. I know that I’ve brought to your attention the great things Eggland’s Best is doing for breast cancer research, through their generous donations to the Susan G. Komen Foundation.

Eggs are a fantastic source of protein and most of us know that they contain a myriad of vitamins and nutrients vital to a healthy lifestyle. But, have I told you how incredibly nutritious Eggland’s Best eggs are?

See for yourself how Eggland’s Best eggs compare to “ordinary” eggs. It’s quite remarkable, really.
