Hubster loves his eggs for breakfast and he’s over the Cheerios and oatmeal I give him to keep his cholesterol love (He doesn’t have a cholesterol problem, I just worry with all the meat, eggs and ice cream he eats). I wanted to make a delicious breakfast, that was also a bit healthier.

Egg White Omelet

Egg White Omelet
I whisked together 8 egg whites, 1 tsp. vinegar (to help make the eggs fluffy), 1/2 Tbsp. minced onions, salt and pepper. Pour into hot pan and cook over medium heat until eggs begin to set. Add the cheese, meat and vegetables of your choice on half of the eggs. Fold omelet in half and continue to heat to melt the cheese. Remove from heat, transfer to a plate and serve.

This time I used turkey bacon, tomatoes and cheddar cheese. Another favorite of mine in spinach and Feta cheese.

Which are you favorite omelet ingredients?

I haven’t been very diligent about posting in January. Hubster started his Master’s degree and I am the one feeling stressed. Mix that with the lack of energy due to the cold sunless winter and I just have had little energy after work.  Lemon is a scent & flavor that energizes and relaxes me at the same time (if you can make sense of that). Anything lemon flavor reminds me of my dad, he eats lemon everything.

Ingredients:
1/4 c. butter, 1 egg, 1 package of lemon pudding mix, 1 3/4 c. flour, 1 Tbs. baking powder, 2 Tbs. poppy seeds, 1 c. milk, 1/3 c. sugar, lemon zest from one lemon, pinch of salt

Directions:
Preheat oven 400°F, grease muffin tins. Mix dry ingredients together, add wet ingredients until well blended. Spoon evenly into muffin tins and bake for 20 minutes, or until toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean.
