egg product

[MINETZ]

can you substitute eggs in any way for egg product?
The recepie calls for 3/4 cup fat free cholestoral free egg product? does anyone know which way to prepare the eggs to substitute?
This is for pasta carbonara by the way.

Use a tablespoon of veg oil for each egg.

Oh wait! You have eggs? I thought you meant you were looking for something to substitute for eggs. Nevermind. Just use the same amound of eggs as you would that other crap.

Just use (beaten) eggs, probably 2 or 3 depending on what size they are. I'd also recommend stirring some parmesean (and salt+pepper) into the eggs before you add them to the pasta.

If it calls for a fat-free cholesterol-free egg product, just separate the yoke from the eggs and use 3/4 cup of egg whites; it's the same thing.

The dish in question is significantly better if you use the yolks, too.

Of course it does- unhealthy food always tastes better. Since the recipe called for fat/cholesterol free product, I figured it was a health conscious dish, and recommended taking the yolk out.
