use one of the small eggs that they sell in the grocery store, unless the recipe originally called for the use of two small eggs, then i guess you could just round up a little.
from personal experience ive found that 90% of the time the flavor of food won't change drastically so long as you're close to what the recipe called for... so ya, one small egg or a regular egg if you don't have any.

2nd choice - ignore missing egg ... eggs are never the same size so pretend you used 3 tiny eggs.

You can substitute extra large eggs for baking. The important thing to remember here is the amount of liquid you are putting in your baked item.
