Eggs aren't as tiresome when they are incredibly delicious! I've been living a low carb lifestyle for a while now and was having trouble with breakfast. Let me tell you these are some eggs I could wake up to very happily! This is actually a very nice dish for a brunch or a quick supper also. I used 2 cups of a cole slaw bag that was on sale for a dollar! I also used 1/2 a bag of frozen shrimp that was on sale for $4.99. So, not only was this delicious, it was less than a dollar per serving.

I have 2 recipes for the sauce. Sauce 1: 1 tsp cornstarch, 1 tsp sugar, 1 tsp vinegar, 2 1/2 Tbsp soy sauce, 1/2 C water. Combine all ingredients in small sauce pan. Cook stirring constantly until mixture boils. Continue cooking and stirring for 1- 2 minutes. Keep sauce warm while frying egg foo young mixture.
Sauce 2: 1 Tbsp cornstarch, 1 Tbsp soy sauce, 1 tsp instant beef bouillon granules, 1 tsp sugar, 1 C cold water. Follow instructions above.

This recipe is wonderful. Just as good as local takeout, but healthier, faster, and cheaper! Still looking for a good brown gravy recipe......

I didn't have any shrimp around, so I used some leftover roast pork instead. It was great and I think the recipe will adapt easily to beef, chicken, or pork.

I was craving more veggies so I tossed in a handful of diced celery, frozen mixed veggies (green beans, carrots, peas, & corn, and mushrooms when I sauteed the onions. That addition made it not as low carb, but it was tasty. Instead of canola oil,

I recommend using wok oil. It's available in the Asian foods in your grocery store. I think the mix of soybean, garlic, ginger, sesame, and onion oils is much lighter and better suited to preparing Asian dishes.

I also used a packet of dry chicken gravy mix to whip up some of the traditional gravy. It was perfect. This is just about the best Egg Foo Young I've ever had and certainly easier and cheaper than getting Chinese takeout.

I think this recipe would be excellent even without my additions. I've tried several other Egg Foo Young recipes that left me unimpressed. I think the garlic powder and soy sauce in this one make it heads above the rest! Mmm, I'm hungry just thinking about it again!

Simple to make. Tastes like regular Egg Foo Young. No sauce but the pancake is so flavorful it doesn't matter. Leftovers heat up great in the toaster oven. This is a staple of my low cal, good carb diet.

I used bagged coleslaw for the cabbage and added a tsp of both fish sauce AND sesame oil to ramp up the "asian" flavor. Also added a bit more shrimp than called for. Everyone loved this for a light supper with white rice.
