In this episode Jack discusses healthy alternatives to eggs (especially the yolks, which are not recommended on the Overcoming MS program), and chocolate.  

   

Topics and Timestamps:   

02:55 Do you have any tips on making a tofu scramble?  

10:32 How do you replace eggs in cake recipes?  

15:11 One of our listeners wanted to know how much egg white is needed to replace a whole egg.  

20:42 Is there is a healthy substitute for egg replacers like Just Egg, which is the closest thing she’s found to scrambled eggs. However, she’s concerned about some problematic ingredients in it, like a whole bunch of canola oil, and the high temperatures required to cook it. 

23:43 Is it possible to make an Overcoming MS-friendly custard? I would really love to know how to make a quiche and custard dessert for my family.  

31:12 Can you explain how to use aquafaba?  

35:48 I have a lot of chocolate cravings and I’m looking for Overcoming MS-friendly ways to satisfy them. Do you have any recommendations?  

38:54 Can I replace chocolate in a recipe with cacao/cocoa? How?  

40:33 On cacao nibs, are they fine to use? 

44:02 Finally, Jack, our whole community is excited about the imminent launch of the latest Overcoming MS book, The Overcoming Multiple Sclerosis Handbook, which has numerous contributing editors, yourself among them. What can you tell us about the project and your role in it?
