Expert Tips

  • tip 1
    For the best results we recommend using a mixture of eggs and egg whites. We tested this recipe using fat-free egg product, and found the flavor to be a bit bland and the texture slightly curdled.
  • tip 2
    Look for cooked bacon strips near the lunch meat items at the grocery store.
