Eggs will have an average of 6-7 grams of protein per egg. Just check the egg carton, im pretty sure that all of them will have the nutritional information on it. Eggs also have 0 carbs. If you plan on having a high protein diet and are going to use eggs to supplement this, consider using just the egg whites because then you eliminate the fat as well. As far as boiling them goes, 15 minutes is a pretty good rule of thumb, but there are a lot of different answers to that question. I place the eggs in cold water, put them on the stove on med to med-high heat for 15 minutes, then immediately remove, drain, and place in cold water again.
