I am not an egg eater at all, I've tried them many times, many different ways...with many different toppings & ingredients to mask the egg taste. I can't do it. I was reading that vegans do not consume eggs because they are a animal by-product. Does anyone out there have a substitute for eggs in meals? Something that holds the same type of nutrional value or at least a resemblence to texture so I can use them in breakfast recipes that are basically egg based?
Thanks in advance!

Dont know what kind of recipes you are looking at. Have you ever tried Egg Beaters? Or Egg Beater Egg whites. Some times it is the Yoke people do not care for but they like the white part. If thats the case just add the white part to the recipe.
Let me see a recipe

I would have to agree with @WendyB here. And even still, most vegan egg subs are meant to emulate the taste of eggs without animal products. It's like Tofurky.
Although, if you are looking to replace eggs in a recipe where eggs are not the sole base (seeing as you probably don't want to buy 6 of them when you only need one or two for a recipe), 3 tbsp flax seed and 1 tbsp water works well.

I don't see how you can change this without the eggs. I would try the Egg Beater Egg Whites or plain egg whites and see if you can tolerate them
Let us know

@MRose 3 tbsp flax seed and 1 tbsp water works well.

@awood08 that flax seed and water will not work for like an Omlette recipe. <--- this is egg based
It will work for a recipe like Macorini salad where its not egg based

Exactly @WendyB! I wouldn't recommend scrambling up a bunch of flax seed... I mean you can, but why would you? Haha.

A great Egg or protien substitute is Tofu. Soft Silk Tofu. You can mash it and season it just like and egg. It's a winner~

A non-"eggy" egg recipe I use when I'm tired of scrambled, fried, 'quiched' eggs is flourless crepes... Two eggs + 2tbs of cream cheese, mix in blender (I have a small 16oz personal blender that works well for this). Add vanilla, cinnamon, stevia if you wish. Cook as you would pancakes. The batter is thin and delicate, so works best making small ones (easier to flip without tearing)
