Egg whites

OK so my tesco order has just delivered and I didn't realise that I have ordered 'egg whites', apparently in my fridge I now have 15 egg whites in a tetra pack carton.

I know I could make meringue, but it's not something I like so what else can I do?

I add them to scrambled eggs, omelettes, smoothies...but then I lift weights so the added protein is a bonus. Maybe find a cake recipe?

Souffle omelette?
Add to fruit puree and freeze for sorbet

Some more ideas:
Apple snow
Sweet or savoury souffle
Syllabub
Amaretti biscuits
Blinis

I bet you're sorry that you didn't order two cartons now! Easter Wink

Baked Alaska. It freezes well afterwards also, but you need to slice before freezing!

Langues de chats biscuits

Also i read somewhere the other day about something called cloud bread which apparently uses up egg whites ...sounds a tad odd though

Iles flottantes is fab, made with poached meringue which is a different texture to baked meringue, so you might like it. Usually served with a cold vanilla custard sauce made from the egg yolks, but you could serve with a fruit puree or a ready made chocolate sauce.

How very nice it is when the poster comes back to update, thank you.

You could try the BBC Food section for recipes, they are usually very reliable.
