Veggie-stuffed Omelet and Chicken Ham



If you are looking for that healthy plus tasty breakfast, this is a very good idea. It leaves your taste buds satisfied without making you feel guilty about eating or without causing any stress on your heart or arteries. Although since it is heavy on the protein, people with weak livers may want to steer clear of this guy. This is what i had right after my morning workout a few days ago and it left me feeling great and energized without making me feel heavy and stuffed. 

First step is making the stuffing ... I actually had steamed veggies mixed with oregano and pepper along with baked chicken the night before. I used the left over veggies from last night to stuff this omelet. It had broccoli, carrots, peas, beans and cauliflower all steamed separately and then mixed together on a sauté pan. Sauté them with a few drops of olive oil, add some oregano and black pepper on top. You could even try throwing in some garlic in there. 

Then you pour about 1 table spoon of olive oil on the fry pan and let it simmer for a few seconds before adding 3 egg-whites on top, pour the veggies on top of the egg-whites and let it cook, once the bottom is done, you fold the egg to form a nice stuffed omelet. I had this with a side of chicken ham and 2 slices of toast of whole-wheat bread. Always make sure you get your chicken ham from a good store, otherwise it can turn out to be a disaster. We usually get it from Steakhouse (Jorbagh) or Sugar & Spice (Khan Market) or Pigpo (Jorbagh). 

Dipped into a bit of "Maggi Hot & Sweet" it tastes very nice. I felt light yet full of energy the whole and it got enough protein in me after my workout. If you have room for it, follow it up with a glass of freshly squeezed juice or cold chocolate milk .... Trust me, its DIVINE !!!
