they are powdered....
you add 4 oz of water and microwave, repeatedly taking out to stir.....rubber
I was sick so I was too lazy to use the stove but next time I definitely will and see if that makes them any better....
when cooked they looked, smelled and tasted like eggs....just a bad texture
nutritionally....they are packed with extra protein to fight hunger, no cholesterol, and they are smaller portions

5. Then they're not really eggs? |
|
Or not the entire egg? What's different?

7. so better, nutritionally, than a real egg |
|
Edited on Thu Jan-10-08 08:35 AM by MissMillie
but maybe about equivalent to egg beaters... which probably taste a lot better. http://www.eggbeaters.com/docs/Nutritional_Facts_Poster.pdf

8. Egg beater scrambled eggs are good. |

I add a dash of 1% milk and some Bragg Aminos and pepper. Yummy.

two eggs scrambled with milk is only 170 calories with 14 grams of protein. Unless there are health issues, I always think the real thing is best. Just my humble opinion.

11. you are probably right |
|
but I have a significant amount of weight to lose and this system is really helping.....when I get close to my goal I will of course start incorporating more "real" foods into the diet.....the plan calls for adding real fruits and vegetables and dairy to accompany their entrees
