Protein Packed Morning Omelet

Ingredients

  • 1 medium whole egg
  • 3 tbsp liquid egg whites (again, we use EB)
  • 1 tbsp corn
  • 1 tbsp sliced beets
  • 1/4 cup sliced carrots
  • 1/4 cup diced zucchini
  • 1 tbsp chickpeas
  • 1 tsp dried basil 

Optional:

  • 1 tbsp fresh hummus
  • 1 Joseph’s whole grain tortilla, or another whole grain tortilla 

Directions, serves 1

In a small bowl, whisk the whole egg and egg whites. Stir in the corn, beets, carrots, zucchini, chickpeas and basil.

In a heated non-stick skillet, or a non-stick skillet that’s lightly spritzed with your favorite cooking oil in a spray jar, pour the egg mixture into the pan and cook for about 4 minutes, or until eggs are cooked through. Flip the omelet and allow the other side to cook for two minutes.

Optional: Toast tortilla and spread hummus on warm tortilla!
