@jeanice, some with CKD are told to limit eggs due to the phosphorus, potassium and protein content. I am NOT saying you should not eat eggs, just sharing some info. A good way to get around this is to use one whole egg and one egg white and save the extra yolk for baking or cooking something else later. There are egg substitutes on the market and my first recipe collection even calls for them but even though I'm on a protein restriction I wanted to avoid them for personal ethical reasons. Then my favorite store started selling eggs from a local free range farmer so I'm no longer a strict vegan because I do buy them now and enjoy about one per week. The first recipe collection I wrote is primarily vegan based on my own personal choice, meaning no animal products, but many, many, many CKD patients do quite well eating low-phosphorus dairy and lean meats.
