Egg whites are renowned for their health benefits compared to whole eggs. However, creating omelets with egg whites as a base can often result in a less-than-appetizing appearance and texture.
Introducing the Sprout Omelette – a nutritious alternative that not only enhances the health quotient but also ensures a visually appealing and delicious outcome. The sprouts play a key role, holding the omelette together for a seamless presentation. The possibilities are vast, making this recipe a true “superfood” delight!
Ingredients:
- 1 cup of fresh sprouts
- 1 ounce of your preferred cheese, grated or finely chopped
- 3-4 ounces of diced onions and/or mushrooms
- 2 ounces of any milk
- Salt, pepper, and spices to taste
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven or toaster oven’s broiler.
- In a bowl, combine sprouts, cheese, diced onions and/or mushrooms, milk, and seasonings. Cut and stir the mix with scissors to ensure even distribution.
- Spray a frying pan with non-stick cooking spray. Pour the mixture into the pan, spreading the sprouts evenly with the other ingredients in the middle.
- Heat the pan to medium. As the egg white forms, use a spatula to guide it towards the center of the omelette, preventing it from spreading too thin. This process takes approximately three minutes.
- Place the pan under the broiler for five minutes to achieve a golden-brown finish and melt the cheese.
- Serve the omelette, garnish as desired, and savor the flavors! If you’re pressed for time, transfer the firm omelette from the pan to a plate and finish in the microwave for 1-2 minutes.
