Consider purchasing half cartons or just using egg substitutes if you only use eggs on occasion. As mentioned earlier, a smart way to get the nutrients of eggs without too much cholesterol is to use egg whites or a combination of whole eggs and whites. Often recipes will call for the eggs to be beaten, especially in recipes where volume is wanted. An omelet, for instance, can be made with 1 egg and 2 beaten egg whites folded in. The omelet will be as full as if it has been made with 3 eggs.
Plastic bowls can harbor odors and grease.
Using either a balloon whisk or hand-held electric mixer, whip the egg whites until they form stiff moist peaks. Once eggs are whipped, don't delay in gently folding them into the other ingredients in the recipe. Add bean sprouts and fresh snow peas to an omelet. Drizzle the top of the omelet with low-sodium soy sauce. Place on a toasted whole wheat English muffin.
