Egg shortage in US ahead of holiday season: 6 protein-packed alternatives to try

The egg shortage in the US due to bird flu outbreaks across three states - Utah, Washington state, and Oregon has left grocery shelves empty and people disappointed. The unavailability of eggs ahead of the holiday season can be particularly challenging for those planning to make their favorite holiday dishes, many of which rely heavily on eggs. The US Department of Agriculture has lowered its estimated egg production from now through the start of next year. With egg availability on the decline, it's important for households to look for alternatives to the dietary staple.
