Expert Tips

Egg whites provide the protein from eggs but don't contain the cholesterol found in egg yolks. That's good news for your heart.

We tried this and thought it was absolutely great. I loved the amount of potatoes to the amount of egg there was. I do think though if you are planning on going by their serving size you will need more things to eat. It is enough for two people, and our baby.
