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.
