I always hear of guys eating 10-12 or even more eggs in a day, im lucky if i can get 4 in me though i cook them as scrambled. If you're one of these people that eat a lot of eggs, please tell me how you do it. I know drinking them like "rocky" isn't the safest way but I'm willing to do it just to get the egg protein in me. any advice is great! thanx

I have 5 in the morning and at time 5 more last meal at night or even at time 2 to 3 Raw Whites in a shake.

You can add then too Tuna, Tuna Salads or just a salad also.

When you want a snack having a hard boiled is good.

Here is a good one that gives a corn beef and hash taste, Brown Rice, Tuna and Eggs heated and mixed up.

12 per day. 6 in the morning, 6 pre bed. This will be at each sitting, 4 eggwhites and 2 whole eggs. Usually as an omlette with salsa and lots of omlette veggies.

I made a 'protein cake' today which was pretty tasty...and an alternative way of eating eggs so you don't feel like all you're doing is eating eggs (the whole reason I came up with it). You guys probably won't go to the trouble, but I whipped 6 egg whites into a meringue then added vanilla protein powder, a little vanilla extract, 1 t. brown sugar splenda and ground almonds. I poured this into a cake pan prepared with Pam and a coating of flour. Baked for about 20 minutes. 49 gms. protein for the entire cake, 8 gms. fat (from the almonds, which could be omitted), and 9 gms. of carbs., 304 cals. I ate half the cake immediately (and felt pretty full), ate the rest in wedges over the rest of the afternoon.

I actually buy about 4 cartons of egglands best every 2 weeks, and i buy 2 cartons of egg whites to substitue the whole eggs!

This way my wife does not freak out when i am eating 4-6 eggs in a sitting?

The carton of whites is like equvilant to something like 8 eggs a corton.

so i have a few there and then a few from the egglands best, that keeps the wifey sane with the grocery bill!!!

5 whites with one egg at least - sometimes double that
