Scrambled Powdered Eggs...

Powdered eggs from a can?

I've told you before how I use egg powder in baking. 

But how about eating as eggs?


Simply add water to the whole egg powder, get out your little whisk and stir, stir, stir.


Scramble in a buttered pan with a dash of pepper. 
Eat just like you would any other kind of eggs.


Which for me involved bacon, toast and cheese!

Normally when someone is out of a key ingredient (eggs in my case), they would have to run to the store to get more. Or, they could just find something else to eat.

That's the joy of the "Home Store" concept Shelf Reliance has established.

 No more making frequent runs to the store, buying more than the one thing you needed, spending extra time and more money then you meant to. 

Keep your pantry stocked with great food and never go without again!

So yes, you can make scrambled eggs from whole egg powder. 

And yes, they are good enough to eat!

Confession: I eat cookie dough!

Since I was a kid I can always remember eating the dough when cookies were being "baked". All through college my friends and I would eat more dough than cookie. As a "responsible" parent, I don't let my kids eat (or SEE me eat) cookie dough. Everyone knows that raw eggs are dangerous to eat! 
Well, one product that sold me on Shelf Reliance was the powdered eggs! They sounded weird nasty, but when I tried them out, I was amazed! 

The only thing my kids like more than FD Strawberries is cookies! 
I don't know where they get it from!

Back to the eggs,... 
Rather than adding "real" (as my DH says) eggs, you add 1Tb of egg powder per egg and cream that with the sugar and butter. Then when you add your vanilla, add 2 Tb of water per egg. And the rest goes as usual!
Add your home ground whole wheat flour... (More on that later!)
I usually do tiny teaspoon cookies, but every once in awhile I like to get crazy change it up and use a tablespoon!
And ta-da! Delicious chocolate chip cookies made with REAL whole egg powder! 

A #10 can of eggs contains 236 eggs. That's 19.6 dozen eggs! At $20.99, that's about $1/dozen. With the way prices are going these days, you'd be lucky to find eggs at that price anymore. And with all the recalls and salmonella issues, these powdered eggs are sounding more and more delicious! I have made omelets, scrambled eggs, breads, cookies, etc and every time had great results! 

And I eat cookie dough and don't worry about it making me sick.
