  • Reviews

  • “This had a really strange texture and broke up when you removed it from the pan. It was also too “mustardy”, as that was the only thing you could taste. Were I to modify the recipe to improve it, I would cut the mustard at least in half and reduce the milk to 1/2 cup. That might help.”

  • “Tried this morning for breakfast and found it veryappealing.Thanksverymuch.”

  • “My first effort trying cartoned eggwhites, very pleasing result!! I was out of onion and had no canned milk, so I used 2% regular milk, it came out lovely! Very nice flavour combination, loved the Canadian bacon. I will be doing this one again, thanks for posting! Came baack to tell you that I forgot to say I didn’t bother with the pie plate, just poured the eggwhite mix over the stuff in the frypan, it worked great and only used one pan!Also was really surprized at how the whole thing puffed up in the oven without any beating of the mix!! Thanks again!!”

  • “This was a really good dish.When you consider how healthy is it, it’s even better!My husband, who loves seafood siad he’d have liked it even better with some crab or shrimp in it (might try that next time), but I really enjoyed the canadian bacon.Thanks!”
