BOILED EGG SALAD

This dish is very rich in fibre, vitamins and different minerals (calcium, magnesium, sodium, potassium, fluoride, iodine, selenium and copper). It's also very rich in vitamin A and contains all the B-group vitamins as well as the fragile vitamin C. Two eggs will provide enough lipids and proteins for the whole meal. As this salad has very few calories, it can be accompanied by another, higher-calorie dish in the same meal. This dish is suitable for children and adults who plan to carry out light physical activity. Persons suffering from hypertension (high blood pressure)should remove the olives from the salad. Persons suffering from high cholesterolshould eat it in moderation. The meal can be balanced with a dish of slow-release glucids and proteins.
