Spinach Omelette
Eggs are a great breakfast option while dieting. They are high in protein, low in carbs and keep you full & satisfied for a long time. I love starting my day with eggs, and this omelette recipe is definitely a keeper! You get your greens in as well, which is a super healthy kick-start to your day!
Ingredients
2 medium-large eggs
3 handfuls baby spinach
chopped onion (to taste)
½ green pepper, chopped
½ tomato (chopped)
Directions
Cook the Spinach first:
- In small frying pan, pour 1/4 cup water in pan
- Turn pan on to medium heat
- Add spinach to pan and cook until wilted (3-4 minutes)
Then, onto the omelette
- In small bowl, crack 2 eggs
- add about ¼ cup water to eggs and whisk together
- In medium-large frying pan, pour eggs (ensuring its a non-stick pan, or if not, spray with non-stick cooking spray!)
- Cook on medium heat for approximately 2 minutes
- Add spinach, peppers, onions and tomatos onto the pan (in the mdidle of the omelette)
- Let cook for 1 minute
- Fold omelette using Spatula and cook for 1-2 minutes (until egg is fully cooked!)

Amazingly Delicious Green Smoothie
I love making smoothies, I would drink them for breakfast, lunch, and dinner if I could. I was looking up some delicious recipes that included some ever-so-healthy GREENS in them. After adding/deleting/changing some ingredients, I finally concluded this was the BEST smoothie ever (well, I’ll probably say that a lot but still, so delicious!) so I had to share it with everyone I knew. After they reluctantly tried it..guess what? THEY AGREED! Even my boyfriend who isn’t a “smoothie-guy” and definitely not a huge fan of greens loved it, and we make it all the time!
If you are trying to eat more greens (or want to have your kids, hubby, etc.) but don’t really like the taste, this recipe is perfect! It tastes yummy, sweet, and mostly like banana!
In a blender, add:
5 ice cubes
¾ cup almond milk
1 ripe banana
3 large handfuls fresh spinach
Blend & Enjoy!
Tip: Some people suggest adding a nut butter with this smoothie. I tried it with peanut butter and it was SO good. I usually omit the peanut butter just to keep the calories down, but it does taste amazing!
