1. Meringue: Making meringue to top a pie or other dessert or use it anywhere as a substitute for frosting. Make our tasty organic meringue. Get a recipe for Simple Meringue Frosting from Health, Home and Happiness.
2. Macaroons: One of my all-time favorite cookies is the macaroon. Macaroons are made with an egg white base. Try these Peppermint Chocolate Macaroons from best-selling Paleo author Danielle Walker. These macaroons have a rich chocolate taste and leave just a hint of festive peppermint lingering on the tongue.
3. Angel Food Cake: This light and fluffy cake is made with 12 egg whites. It’s great topped with fresh whipped cream and berries. You can even make a grain-free Angel Food Cake recipe from The Healthy Home Economist.
