Altering traditional recipes
You'll have to experiment a bit to determine just the right amount of an ingredient to serve the purpose. A good starting point with most recipes in which egg acts as a binder is to use 2 to 3 tablespoons of any of the following ingredients (or a combination of them) to replace one whole egg. If the original recipe calls for two eggs, start with 4 to 6 tablespoons of egg substitute.

* Tomato paste

* Arrowroot starch

* Potato starch

* Cornstarch

* Whole-wheat, unbleached, oat, or bean flour

* Finely crushed breadcrumbs, cracker meal, or matzo meal

* Quick-cooking rolled oats or cooked oatmeal

* Mashed potatoes, mashed sweet potatoes, or instant potato flakes

You can also try 1/4 cup of any kind of tofu blended with 1 tablespoon of flour or 1-1/2 teaspoons vegetarian egg replacer mixed with 2 tablespoons of water.
