    Every Sunday night, I use a mixer to blend 8 large eggs and 4 egg whites, add a whole chopped red pepper, green pepper, tomato, and lots of spinach, add a bit of garlic powder and red pepper flakes, and bake for about 25 min at 350 degrees. I cut it up to make 20 squares, and I pop 4 squares in the microwave for about 1.5 min, top with salsa, and that's breakfast all work-week long! Only 150-180 calories for each serving, and oh-so filling. Gets me from 6:30 in the morning, through my workout, and to my 10:00 snack just fine.

    I eat 2 hard boiled eggs a day -- yolks in! (C'mon, that's the best part!)

    I can't hard boil them though. I steam them instead. Whenever I boil them in water I can never peel them, so I put them in a steamer basket, put a lid on, turn the burner on high, set the timer for 16 minutes and walk away. Turns out perfect every time and the most easily peeled hard boiled eggs you'll ever eat!!!!

    eggs are the best food ever! me and my wife go out with friends to fancy restaurants sometimes and i still order eggs... sadly, now that im on a diet, i only eat the egg whites. still awesome! i replace the yolk with tomato. ex: i take a tortilla, low fat cheese, 4 egg whites and some tomato and roll that thing up... sometimes i eat this twice a day. best thing, its less then 300 calories. woot!

    Why would you eat an egg with no yolk? That's just not right.....Ha-Ha. I love the yoke. I eat about 8-10 per week. No problem with my cholesterol either.

    Depends how the funds are looking! Towards the end of the month I get through more. I prefer them as a cheese omlette with baked beans.

    I have started adding egg whites to my oatmeal in the morning. They are really good that way. I can't get over how much more filling my breakfast is because of them.

    DITTO!!! An amazing way to maximise the protein in your morning oatmeal.

    I LOOOOVE eggs
    but I don't eat them that often.

    I like them any style..
    I love yolks unless it is scrambled and then it might just be white.

    i work from home, and keep odd hours, so i am 10-11am waking up most mornings so most of my days are two large meals and a couple kind of big snacks scattered throughout the day, so breakfast looses out. but i love scrambled eggs. sometimes i scramble a couple egg beaters and put them on a bagel thin with a laughing cow cheese and a couple slices of turkey pepperoni.

    I eat one egg almost every morning with whatever veggies and cheeses we have in the fridge and sometimes with some brown rice mixed in. I would feel bad wasting the yolk to just eat whites and they are so yummy! I sometimes eat a hard boiled during the day and I love them in all their varieties. I could probably eat them for every meal and be satisfied.
