Asparagus, Spinach Omelette

 One of the things I love to do is have lots of color when I make a food dish. In making this dish, I have added lots of veggies.

Chop up one medium onion

Dice 2 cloves of garlic

Chop Medium sized 1/2 red, green or orange pepper

cook in 2 tsp olive oil

add 10 or so spears of asparagus cut in bite sized pieces

add 1 cup of baby spinach

Cook for a few minutes

Add 3 - 4 beaten eggs - add a little milk/almond/soy milk beat until frothy

Add egg mixture to veggies

Just as eggs are almost done add chopped tomatoes and grated mozzarella or cheddar cheese to taste.

Makes a complete meal. Sometimes I'll include one piece of toast - whole wheat or rye. I will put a little jam on it with no butter.

I hate to throw out egg yolks so cook the whole egg, tho you can use only egg whites. When picking out bread to buy, I look at calories, fiber, added fructose. I don't care for the extremely low calorie bread as there isn't much to it. I like a heavier bread. Part of finding a new healthy eating style is to find healthy foods you like, that way you can stick to your new lifestyle. It's not a diet, its a new eating style.
