I'm planning to make a Breakfast casserole for mother's day. I had planned to substitute turkey sausage for pork sausage, but will it turn out the same if I use egg beaters instead of regular eggs? Anyone tried it or have recipes for healthier breakfast casseroles? Thank you!

It should come out ok- not as moist as if you used eggs. You might want to go half and half. Happy Mother's day!

I don't like egg beaters myself so my suggestion would be to use half eggs and half whites. I make a breakfast casserole myself and I use the jimmy dean (light) sausage which is excellent. I haven't compared the calories to turkey sausage but the flavor of the JD is excellent and you'd never know it's light. I normally use 8 eggs but I only use 4 yolks. My recipe calls for seasoned croutons and shredded cheese so that is where the calories increase. The lower cal cheese really doesn't make much of a taste difference after it's baked but I haven't found a solution to the croutons or bread yet. Bummer! it's my favorite brunch dish.

You might look at Eggface's breakfast bites. They're basically a breakfast casserole in miniature form and don't use any bread/croutons.

Melissa mentioned the website "theworldaccordingtoeggface" check out her recipe for triple berry baked pancake also. I make it in a pie pan and divide it into 6 slices, it is really good. Have also used peaches, apples and just strawberries-top with alittle SF syrup-YUMMMM

I have seen egg beaters that comes as egg whites with some egg yolks.

Get the spicy Italian Turkey sausage from Butterball.

Go ahead and use real eggs. They've gotten a bad rap over the years. You might want to read "The Great Cholesterol Con" by Dr. Malcom Kendricks.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
