    Quick and Yummy Omelets
    ⌚ PREP TIME: 10 minutes

    Quick and Yummy Omelets

    SERVES: 2

    INGREDIENTS:

    • 1 teaspoon canola oil, divided
    • ½ cup filling, such as shredded cheese, onions, spinach, or other vegetables, chopped
    • 2 eggs
    • 2 tablespoons 1% milk
    • ⅛ teaspoon ground black pepper
    • ⅛ teaspoon salt

    STEPS:

    1. Heat ½ teaspoon canola oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook vegetables until tender. Remove from pan and set aside.

    2. Whisk eggs, milk, pepper, and salt in a bowl until blended.

    3. Heat remaining canola oil in skillet over medium-high heat until hot.

    4. Heat remaining canola oil in skillet over medium-high heat.

    5. Pour in egg mixture. Gently push cooked portions from the edges toward the center with the spatula so uncooked eggs can reach the pan’s hot surface. Continue cooking, tilting pan, and gently moving cooked portions as needed.

    6. When the top surface of eggs has thickened and no visible liquid remains, place filling on half of the omelet. Fold omelet in half with spatula, covering the filling, and slide onto a plate.

     


    Quick Tips:

    Use your favorite vegetables and other fillings to create your own omelet variation. Add a slice of whole-wheat toast on the side. Omelets are great for a quick dinner on busy nights.
