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!)

Peanut Butter & Oatmeal Crumble
Greek yogurt is an excellent choice for those of us looking to lose weight, tone up, or just improve our health. Over American-style yogurt, Greek offers higher protein and lower carbohydrates, per serving. It’s an excellent source of potassium, zinc and vitamins B6 and B12 as well! Greek yogurt makes a great breakfast, lunch or snack, and it’s so easy to take on the go!
I have been adding fresh fruit to my Greek yogurt for a while now, but was craving a change! I saw quite a few recipes for various Greek Yorgurt toppings, and tried quite a few of them! I altered it a bit from the original and found this was the best version (health wise and taste wise!) This recipe really makes you feel like you’re eating something “decadent” but really, its so healthy for you!
Ingredients:
1 cup oats (rolled or steel-cut)
1 tablespoon Peanut Butter
1 tablespoon honey
2 dash cinnamon
1 teaspoon vanilla
How-To:
- Pre-heat oven to 325
- Place peanut butter and honey in mixing bowl and microwave for about 30 seconds (until completely melted)
- Add cinnamon and vanilla extract to the mixing bowl
- Add oats
- Combine oats with honey/peanut butter mixture. Mix well to ensure all oats are coated in the mix
- Once mixed, place on baking sheet (I either use Tin Foil or cooking spray so they don’t stick to the pan!) and spread out mixture so it can cook evenly
- Bake for 7-8 minutes
- Let cool and serve on-top of your favourite yoghurt!
Tip: This mixture will be enough for 5-6 days of topping! Keep fresh by placing it in a covered dish or Tupperware container in the fridge!
P.S. You could also add strawberries, bananas, blueberries etc to this recipe for added flavour!
