Healthy Breakfast Omelet
Breakfast is the most important meal of the day and should
never be skipped. Even if you don’t have time to cook breakfast, try to
grab a piece of fruit or make a breakfast smoothie at the least. I like making egg
white omelets because the egg whites are full of protein and the veggies have
lots of nutrients and fiber.
I usually prepare my veggies and omelet separate then mix
everything together. Below is the simple recipe I follow:
Note: This recipe will make about 1 omelet
- ½ cup of egg whites (you can use a full egg and separate the yolk or purchase just the egg whites)
- 1 handful of baby spinach
- ¼ teaspoon of McCormick California style garlic pepper with red bell & black pepper (my favorite seasoning)
- 1 cup of mixed veggies- mushrooms, colorful bell peppers (or I use whatever I have in the fridge)
Note: Use whatever vegetables you like, sometimes I will use steamed asparagus or broccoli.
Instructions:
1. If you are using whole eggs, remove
the yolk and mix just the egg whites together in a bowl, then add garlic pepper
to taste.
2. Place all your veggies in a small
skillet coated with olive oil over medium heat, allow them to sauté.
3. In another skillet coated with
olive oil over medium heat, pour the egg white mixture and cook for about 2 to
3 minutes.
4. Flip with spatula and cook for
another 2 minutes (at this point you can add your sautéed veggies to the egg whites)
5. Reduce the heat, sprinkle a little
cheese and then fold the omelet in half.
6. Place omelet on a plate and enjoy!
Note: You can also
mix the egg whites in bowl together along with the veggies and cook together. I
do this sometimes too. I also like to have a piece of wheat toast on the side
or grilled chicken if I’m really hungry.
Veggie egg white omelets are super easy to make, plus it’s a
great way to jump start your day. What’s your favorite healthy breakfast recipe?
