Calfornia Superfood Omelette

Calfornia Superfood Omelette

Omelettes are high in protein, which makes you feel full and helps you to manufacture S Factor hormones. Eggs also contain vitamin D, which is an appetite-suppressant, and the yolks contain choline which helps you feel sharp and focused. They’re the perfect way to start your day.

MAKES: 4 servings

PREPARATION TIME: 10 minutes

COOKING TIME: 20 minutes

extra virgin olive oil cooking spray

12 eggs, beaten

100g/3½oz reduced-fat mature cheese,

grated

2 tomatoes, chopped

2 avocados, peeled, pitted and sliced

4 handfuls of alfalfa sprouts

1 handful of chopped coriander leaves

1 lemon, halved, plus extra wedges

to serve

fine sea salt and freshly ground black

pepper

1 Preheat the grill to medium-high and mist a non-stick frying pan with cooking spray. Season the eggs with salt and pepper and lightly whisk with a fork.

2 Add one-quarter of the egg mixture to the pan, shaking the pan to evenly coat the base. Put the pan under the grill for 5 minutes, occasionally pulling the edges of the mixture towards the centre of the pan, until set.

3 Slide the omelette onto a plate. Sprinkle one-quarter of the cheese, tomatoes, avocados, sprouts and coriander over the top, followed by a squeeze of lemon juice. Fold the omelette in half to enclose the fillings and cover with foil to keep warm. Repeat with the remaining egg mixture and fillings to make 3 more omelettes, misting the pan again with cooking spray if necessary. Serve hot with lemon wedges for squeezing over.
