A medium egg as 6g protein, 63 calories, 4g fat and 186g cholesterol.: Nutrition Facts and Analysis for Egg, whole, raw, fresh
But unless you're wanting a straight up whole egg, Egg Beaters are a good alternative. 1/4 cup has just 30 calories, zero fat, zero cholesterol and the same amount of protein.

Egg beaters are great! You can't even tell the difference unless you've tried them within a couple days of each other!

MY DH doesn't even know I'm using Egg Beaters - he swears up and down he could tell the difference just by look alone but by the time I've added a bunch of stuff, he doesn't notice.
My latest was to use 1/4 cup Egg Beaters as the base for a crustless pizza.
Just made it into a thin omelette, slung the fixings (turkey pepperoni, onions, low fat cheese and some spices on the top and put it under the broiler until all bubbly.
