Good source of protein for muscle building? Recovery? General protein source

looking for a dairy (whey) alternative, and soy alternative which is in a lot of vegetarian proteins

What do y'all think?

My wife recently started buying egg whites in the carton at Wal Mart. They're great for scrambling / making an omlette / whatever.

Hmmmm... I was thinking the powder to add to smoothies and stuff, but I'm interested in this now as well

Looks like about 20 grams protein per 3 ounces per liquid egg whites

Liquid egg whites are a great way to add protein to add to shakes

As for powders, I like Jay Robb's egg white protein

Great!

What do you think? Good absorption? Easy digestion?

Honest question: Is there a nutritional reason to pay over $2/serving for egg white protein, over any normal quality protein?

Soy allergies, dairy intolerance?

Other than that, probably not... isolated whey is awesome

I don't know if there's actually a nutritional reason (at least not for me personally)...I just liked the whey protein in that brand so I tried the egg white. That's the only example I could think of off the top of my head, haha

I do like adding the liquid egg whites to smoothies or even my iced coffee to add more protein since the brands I've tried have been flavorless...I just keep forgetting to buy it again when I run out

There's a guy at my gym who swears by egg white protein.

If it wasn't so damn expensive, I would use it.
