I am not a huge egg eater, I mainly use them for baking but M can go through a pack of 12 eggs in one weekend.  While he does not worry about his weight, the fat and cholesterol in the amount of eggs he eats just can’t be good for you.  On top of that, he seems to find it impossible to rinse the egg shells and throw them in the garbage.  I am forever finding a sink full of eggshells.

As I mentioned in my post on the weekend, I got Braeburn Egg Creations for free at No Frills using coupons.

Eggs Creations Original is made from real egg whites and other ingredients to provide a full accompaniment of important vitamins and minerals. This product can be used not only on its own in making many of your favourite egg dishes but also in any of your cooking or baking recipes where whole egg is called for.

They also come in three other flavours, Cheese & Chives, Garden Vegetable or Southwest, but given that we rarely use those mixtures with eggs, I just got the original as it would be the most versatile.  I haven’t tried microwaving them, but their website says that they microwave fine for a scramble like egg dish.

We both had French Toast using them and M had scrambled eggs using them and while I could not tell the difference in the French Toast, he says he could in the scramble (it could be something to do with how wary he was of them to begin with, but she still said they tasted decent just not the same).  Since he easily eats 6 eggs at a time, I could not be happier that he will eat these given the non-existent levels of fat and cholesterol in them compared to real eggs (see chart below).   I will have to try baking with them, I am a little more wary of using them in a recipe that does call for whole eggs but in all, they are decent.
