FrittataThese are quick and great for using up eggs and leftovers. Chop up extra veggies and leftover meat, and sauté them before turning them into a frittata. Try out this healthy lentil and feta frittata, or go fancy with these smoked trout frittata squares. Savoury PiesIf you need ideas for what to put in your pie, consider adding some eggs. They are a delicious and cheap way to add nutrition and protein. This easy fish pie includes eggs in its creamy filling. These bite-sized pie-maker pies with caramelised onion, tomato and thyme are also real crowd-pleasers. Easy bake recipesOne of the best quick dinners is a tray bake. Pop some fresh vegetables and eggs onto a tray and leave it to bake like in the egg bacon and sprouts tray bake. The combination of runny yolks with roasted, caramelised veggies is fantastic, and there's only one pan to clean. Add more protein to nachosTake your nachos to the next level with some eggs.

Take the healthy route with a filling buddha bowl, just fill a bowl with your favourite grain and veggies and top with eggs. Or go international with a Japanese chicken donburi (which literally means bowl) which makes for a delightful meal of saucy rice, egg and chicken. Family pasta dinnerMake a creamy, cheesy pasta carbonara and top it with an extra poached egg or two. It's rich and delicious but still quick to put together. Make it a square meal by adding salad on the side. Different omelette recipesOmelettes are great, if you're looking for a way to switch it up or if you’re wondering what else to make with a waffle maker, omelette recipes for waffle makers will be a hit. Their waffly design makes them the perfect vessel for sauces and crumbly toppings like bacon or fetta. Healthy and filling soupIf you want to make your soup more filling, drop in some eggs. Either add boiled eggs, or beat a couple of eggs and drizzle into your soup as it’s simmering. You’ll get silky ribbons of flavourful, soupy goodness. If you haven’t tried it before, give this recipe for egg drop soup a whirl, then try the technique with other soups. FrittersTop fritters with eggs to boost the protein and keep your fuller for longer. A runny poached or fried egg on top of a stack of fritters is our favourite way to do it. Savoury terrineNext time you make a terrine or meatloaf, consider adding some parboiled eggs to the centre. Not only is it a great way to add extra nutrients, it makes for a show-stopping slice.
