My husband makes omelettes a couple of mornings each week (well, when he's not super busy with work). It's pretty much the only thing that he makes, so I thought it needed to be featured on our food blog! They are really healthy since they are mostly egg whites and veggies. A great way to start your day!
Ingredients:
- 3 eggs
- Splash of skim milk
- ¼ - 1/3 cup cheese (Sharp Cheddar, Mozzarella, Muenster or Feta)
- Diced vegetables (red bell pepper, mushrooms, tomatoes, avocado, onions, etc…)
- Deli ham (approximately 1-2 slices)
Serve with:
- Fresh salsa or Tobasco sauce
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Directions:
- Preheat medium sized pan at medium heat for 3-5 minutes, so that pan is warmed and ready to cook. In a small bowl, beat one full egg and 2 egg whites with a splash of milk. Grease pan with cooking spray. Pour egg mixture evenly in pan so that it covers entire bottom in a thin layer.
- When eggs begin to cook through, start sprinkling cheese on one half of the omelet. (Eggs should still jiggle somewhat in center, though.) Add deli ham and vegetables on top of the cheese layer.
- Continue cooking omelet until egg has completely cooked through. Then gently fold the omelet in half. Wait one more minute, ensuring egg is cooked. Serve with fresh salsa or Tobasco sauce and salt and pepper.
