Meal Replacement Cheese & Bacon Breakfast Eggs

I have just tried this product for the first time and I quite enjoyed it - especially as I was not sure what to expect. I prepared exactly as instructed and cooked on a pan like an omelette. I think there is a slight (processed) cheese smell but it is not offensive. The omelette turned out like a pancake, very light and fluffy and with an almost cakey/pancakey texture rather than an actual omelette or egg. I actually prefer this "pancake" to the maple syrup pancakes that Exante provide. The flavour is definitely more savoury, which is brilliant for those who do not have a sweet tooth but I wouldn't say it was either egg or bacon, it's just "savoury". I have read that others have put in different seasonings to spice up the flavour a bit but for me I can definitely enjoy this as it. Definitely recommend.

I remember the original Breakfast Eggs, plus the Cheese and Bacon version and neither tasted like this. This one more powdery than before and the flavour is a bit off. The first I made as per directions into scrambled egg and it had a weird taste. The second time I added a bit more water, some chopped fresh chili, loads of fresh chives and it was better, but still not fantastic. Back in the day there used to Exante burger mix and Exante breakfast sausage, both made from powder, and both a little bland on their own but fab if a few herbs and spices were added. To cook through they had to be fairly flat but I would do a packet of the Breakfast eggs and a packet of the Exante burger or sausage mix, throw in a few mushrooms and/or tomatoes for the non dieter at the table and it was very tasty weekend breakfast. Sad to see those three products have gone now and this replacement Breakfast Eggs is not as nice.

I quite like the eggs and bacon meal pack, i make it up as directed and use a good pan, i add in various herbs to spice it up, made this as a kind of omelette and as a scrambled style egg meal and its good. I dont much like most of the 'savoury' range, but id be seriously upset if they discontinued this one.

I had forgotten the photo on line so was unsure as how to fry this product, as scrambled or a fried egg. I ended up adding 1dl water, cooking as an omelette, low heat in Teflon pan, covered last minutes for an amazing fluff. Taste: impressed! First meal I did not add herbs or spices to. Lovely, will reorder.

I LOVE this omelette! It's so fluffy and tasty! What a pity I can only enjoy it one a day...

It easy to make and is not inedible but it's also not great. I will be adding chives and herbs next time. To try make it slightly better glad I only have a few of these

Still experimenting after my first week on the diet. Am enjoying most of the products and am seeing encouraging results but these "eggs" are a big no-no. They are very unpleasant and as another reviewer mentioned there is a powerful synthetic odour to them which lingers long after they have been cooked. Felt queasy for the rest of the morning and will definitely not be re-ordering.

I mixed up the sachet as described and poured into pan looked a bit like a pancake. I added generous salt, pepper and chives and had it with a side of grilled mushrooms. Doesn't taste like cheese and bacon, but made a tasty alternative omlette.

This was my first Exante meal replacement so I was a bit apprehensive - would I absolutely hate them? Actually, no. I made them into a crepe and while they tasted like nothing I'd eaten before they were very pleasant - a little bit sweet, a little bit salty and with a smoky-bacon-crisp aftertaste. I'll have them again!

I was a bit skeptical about these as they looked really unappetising when I was frying them in the pan. But boy, with 1tsp of Worcester sauce, pepper and some herbs these make a great breakfast! You need to stir them in the pan constantly while cooking to get the “scrambled eggs” texture. Definitely got the bacon-ish taste but not the cheese. Either way, I thought these were yummy!
