Ok, real talk:
For baking, mix 1 tablespoon ground flaxseed with 3 tablespoons water and let sit for 2 min. This replaces 1 egg. The taste will obviously be a bit different, so consider only replacing half of your eggs if needed. Easier on your wallet and on the chickens.
For 'plated' eggs, consider a tofu scramble instead. Get some 'firm'-grade tofu, whip it up just like an egg, add spices to taste, and cook it in a pan until the water evaporates (tofu is precooked, so no worries about needing to cook it until 'done'). Good for you, good for the environment too.
