Gourmet Food : Powdered Egg Whites - 2.25 Pound Can
Rating: 
- Love my smoothies!!
I found this product for use with the Six Week Body Makeover, by Michael Thurmond, they guy who whips people into shape on Extreme Makeover. I needed to find a way to get egg whites into my diet without actually having to choke them down! I use these powdered egg whites in lots of recipes on that plan, but mostly for smoothies. 1/2 cup frozen strawberries, 4 tsp powdered egg whites, 1/2 of a small banana, a little water and sweetener (if you like) and blend. Really easy and tastes really good. I cannot even detect the egg white in the taste, which is a huge plus. I am now ordering my second 2.25 pound can! Great stuff!
Rating: - A protein shake that tastes good
I have been weight training and trying to eat a higher protein diet. I can no longer bear the sight of turkey, egg-white omelets or cottage cheese. I dislike artificial sweeteners (mostly due to their taste) so I don't care for any pre-made shakes I have tried. I turned to whey protein (bleck...maybe more experimentation will yield something better)and soy protein (bleck redux) but couldn't stand them.
But I like this! I wouldn't eat it plain (it's not THAT good), but the taste is easily coverable with yummy and healthy additives. This morning I made a "shake" that was 1C OJ (Tropicana Grovestand), 1/4C (appx) pure pomegranate juice, 1/4C egg whites (22g protein), 1/4C (appx) plain non-fat yogurt, and one banana. I blended these together with a few ice cubes, and yum! Even my kids love it!
It probably has a lot of naturally occuring sugar from the fruits and yogurt, but I am happy with the content and nutrients, and I can drink it happily without forcing it down!
I have tried the Honeyville dried fruits and been pretty happy with them as well (much better blueberries than for pancakes), so I will look forward to adding these for variety when I can't find good fresh fruit.
Rating: - Powdered Egg Whites
These egg whites work great and are economical. I recently started a diet where I can only eat egg whites. It seems such a waste to throw out the yolks, not to mention the mess of separating the eggs. I use these mostly for baking and to add protein when cooking other foods. Adding the powder has saved me a lot of time preparing the diet foods. The powdered egg whites do have an "eggy" odor and have a slight aftertaste which is easily overcome by adding vanilla or other extracts when making protein shakes or other sweets.

- Great Product
I use this product in post workout shakes with whey - tastes fine and mixes well with water; much cheaper than buying liquid egg whites.
Rating: - Good product.
I use this as an inexpensive alternative to GNC protein powders. It is completely natural and almost 100% protein. Low carb count. Highly bioavailable protein.
When mixed with only water it does have a strange aftertaste. I use powdered Nestles that only has 2 carbs or so and it has definitely improved the taste and removed any aftertaste.
Do not use a shaker bottle with this. Shaking the egg whites will cause them to foam, ( since they want to increase in volume). Use a whisk or fork.
I have used this product for baking power-type bars and it has worked flawlessly. I am confident that it would work with other dishes. However, I am not sure if I would use it for meringues. I haven't tested it, but it does seem to increase in volume rather quickly. Maybe it could be used as a last resort for fresh egg whites.
