Cook's Tips:

Egg whites have fewer calories and fat than eggs and are cholesterol-free! Whites are high in protein and also contain potassium, magnesium, calcium zinc and iron. They’re a good source of riboflavin and selenium with essential vitamins such as folate, B12 and niacin.

You may substitute 4 whole eggs for egg whites.
