Oh, the omelette can be so divine. Why make it naughty? Here’s a core recipe for a yummy omelette you can have for any meal of the day.
Ingredients:
1 egg, beaten
1/4-1/2 cup fat free cottage cheese, whipped in blender (depends on how stuffed you like your omelette)
1/4 cup corn kernels (optional)
1/4 cup black beans (optional)
nonstick spray
salsa
Directions: Preheat a 4-6″ skillet (I use either my tiny cast iron or my All Clad 6″) and spray with nonstick spray. Pour the beaten egg onto the hot pan, making sure it reaches the edges. Using a spatula, lift the edges as the egg cooks. Heat up the corn and beans, if using, in another skillet or saucepan (on medium heat). Or you can microwave them for a minute. As soon as it is cooked on one side, use the spatula to lift the egg and flip. Turn off the heat, but continue cooking the other side of the egg. Spread with the cottage cheese and turn the ends in (or fold in half). Let sit for 1 minute. Transfer to a plate and top with salsa and the corn and beans, if using.
