    I just tested the carton egg whites. They did whip, BUT... they didn't get quite as stiff as regular egg whites would.

    I tried this tonight too with Egglands Best 100% egg whites. Same thing, it didn’t get as stiff and the cake was more flat and eggy. I did NOT let them sit to room temperature if that makes any difference.

    This isn’t the sexiest supper, but I really didn’t want to to the grocery store.

    One spaghetti squash topped with 2 TVs marinara and sautéed mushrooms and garlic. Yummy and filling.

    I have all the ingredients for this on hand. This just might be dinner for me tomorrow night because it looks so tasty.

    Im making up some more of the protein cake lemon muffins from earlier, But im also going to try some itty bitty baby muffins i can eat tonight :D Im hoping i can freeze the big ones overnight toss in my work bag and theyll last a few hours atleast. I mean i know they are eggs and it wont be good for them for to long but surely being frozen to start will make them alright from like 7-12/1ish atleast. Im sure iv had worse. See what the texture is like when frozen and thawed. i know they dont microwave well. Curious lol.


    edit: above, Garlic and mushrooms are so classic and amazing why have i forgotten that combo for a while now. Need to pick up some mushrooms lol

    That looks awesome! Once I get through a lot of my junk food seasonal treats I'll have to make this!

    Keep the low calorie dessert/volume eating desserts coming!

    Do any of you guys know if I can use non whey protein? How does it taste?

    I don't know what I did wrong. I didn't really like the angel food cake all that much. Maybe I put in too much extract. Or maybe it's just not my thing. I used to love angel food cake, but this just didn't do it for me.

    I mean, it was okay. It just wasn't worth the trouble of making it again.

    I will whip this up tonight. I will report back for share my findings. I am not expecting this to be the real thing at all, I mean its not a "cake", but I do expect it to at least look like a cake, have a cake consistency and taste good. The last bit very very important to me.

    Otherwise I am back to making weekly cheesecake and donuts.

    Recipe on cheesecake please?

    @crazyravr I second the request, but for donuts.
    I'm already in a hardcore relationship with your cheesecake.
    @Famof72015 - there is a crazyravr cheesecake thread in the recipes forum. Be warned, its full of drool-worthy pics...

    @Noreenmarie1234, I am not sure. I used Quest both times I made it. Maybe someone else can help.

    Volume eating seems great but waaaay out of my budget. Produce is not cheap, especially for two.
