I don't like eggs :(

[InfamAce]

So I'm one of those people and I really don't like eggs, I know they're amazing for you and I've tried muscling them down and I did notice quite the change going a week or two eating mainly eggs for breakfast, but it is really wearing on me. Just curious if there are breakfasts that are as healthy as eggs or just ways I can make them with something so I can't taste them.

The average large egg is about ~70 cals with....I think ~7grams of protein ( going off the top of my head here ). They are decent enough and pretty filling. Are they necessary? No. I find that cottage cheese is just as filling and meets my protein requirements for breakfast ( my fiance uses Greek Yogurt ). But really there is no specific reason to make sure that you have eggs in your diet that I know of. You just want to make sure that you get an adequate amount of fats and proteins in your diet. Eggs are one of, but no the only food available to you to reach that goal.

Thanks! I usually make oatmeal with whey in it to get that extra protein in there, I'm just really new to all of this especially the nutrition :P

You put Whey powder directly into your oatmeal when you cook it? Wow, props on originality bro. I've never heard of that. As far as being new, no worries. We were all there at one point, just ask and we will do our best to help.

Not sure if srs

I seriously have never heard of putting Whey protein directly into oatmeal. By your reaction I'd have to deduce that I've been living under a rock in regards to oatmeal recipes

[bigdogfarmhand]

Listen I'm going to help you here.

Chicken quarters. $.75 a pound. Yes they are dark meat.

When I was broke. I bet I ate 1000 pounds of chicken quarters for dem gainz

You can make soup out of them. Bake them. BBQ them. Shredded the chicken for a sandwich.

10 pack of frozen burgers patties is 11 bucks at walmart. pack of 8 buns is just over a dollar. eggs can be bought from between just over a buck to 7 bucks for the multi-dozen cases.

if your parents give you even 50 bucks a month to put towards making your own food (do whatever you can to get some financial support if you don't already, offer to do chores/work at the house when you're home, or, you know, get a part time job).

Pretty much

I eat 4 full eggs every morning. One of the best ways to get protein, fat, and taste, with no empty calories.

[ToshiroAki]

so why exactly do you hate eggs?

Taste?

Texture?

color? (lol)

there are a million egg recipes, i like chawanmushi for breakfast (steamed savory egg custard, seasoned with sake and soysauce)

Yup, Whey can be used for so many things can go in everything depending on taste. Favorite breakfast for me is oat cheerios mixed with chocolate or strawberry whey.

[Serpentarius]

eggs suck, eat other food, you dont have to eat early in the morning, "breakfast"

The taste, it really bugs me, but I can eat breakfast burritos, sausage and egg muffins with cheese no problem so long I don't taste it.

*shrugs* I have a protein shake for breakfast. Occasionally have an egg, but I'm so picky they are hard to get right.

[ROttolia]

eat whatever you want as long as you fit it into your macros & calories at the end of the day

some suggestions, if you scramble your eggs add some milk when you beat them, (just a bit, few table spoons) it will get rid of the slight iron/tin taste you get in mass produced eggs.

other than that salt is your friend, as are condiments like tabasco sauce.

browning eggs changes the taste as well, its why most people prefer the taste of an omelet to scrambled despite similar preparation.

This.happens.tomorrow.

[AAOBob]

If you don't like eggs.

Don't eat eggs.

Eat something else.

That should end the thread. Eggs are not magical breakfast food. I'm having four of them for dinner myself, but only because they are quick, easy and I'm being lazy. I had a whey shake for "breakfast". Had a hell of a lot more protein per calorie than eggs.

[TheCorporation]

I'm with everyone else, don't worry about eating eggs. It does suck that you don't like them, because egg whites are really good source for protein. I usually do 2 egg whites and 1 with yolk. But anyway, I digress.

You have a lot of options out there: greek yogurt, whey shakes, milk, even some cheeses are low in cals but still have a decent amount of protein.

[SwarlesBarkleyy]

There are tons of ways to cook eggs. Find what you can manage. Find a balance of yolks and whites that works for you. You can always try adding black pepper, spinach, peppers, adding a little milk, or whatever you can to make it more enjoyable while keeping it healthy. My gf also said she doesnt like eggs so we did what I just told you and she ended up finding something she liked.
