Omlets are a great way to incorporate additional vegatables into the diet. I pour my egg into the omlet pan until the bottom sets, then throw the chopped veggies on top and sprinkle cheese on top. I then take it off the stove and slide the pan under the broiler for 30-40 seconds to melt the cheese and finish cooking the egg on top. Sometimes I leave the pan under the broiler a little longer until the cheese starts to bubble and become golden like a pizza. Then fold and enjoy.

I am so pleased that so many people now know about the stigma about eggs being an unhealthy source of nutrition due to the cholesterol content. Eggs are extremely healthy providing an excellent source of Omega-3s and protein. Some oldschoole doctors and dieticians still believe they are bad sources of cholesterol. WE know different!!
