<br>CHEW THE RIGHT THING
<br>
<br>
<br>BITE IT!
<br>HG's Alternate Ultimate Omelette
<br>
<br>Om' Nom Nom!
<br>
<br>The first step to starting off 2012 right? Starting your DAY right! Eating a protein-packed breakfast will fuel you up and set you up for success. But instead of falling for a fatty restaurant omelette, make this insanely delicious guilt-free one. Tasty morning goodness? This just might be your year...
<br>
<br>Filling
<br>1 frozen meatless or turkey sausage patty with 80 calories or less (like the kind by Morningstar Farms or Jimmy Dean)
<br>1 slice center-cut bacon or turkey bacon
<br>1/2 cup sliced mushrooms
<br>1/4 cup diced onion
<br>1/4 cup diced bell pepper
<br>1/4 cup diced tomato
<br>
<br>Omelette
<br>3/4 cup fat-free liquid egg substitute (like Egg Beaters Original)
<br>3 tbsp. shredded fat-free cheddar cheese
<br>
<br>Optional toppings: diced chives, additional diced tomato
<br>
<br>Directions:
<br>Prepare sausage patty and bacon in a skillet sprayed with nonstick spray or on a microwave-safe plate in the microwave. (Refer to packages for cook times and temperatures.) Chop or crumble and set aside in a bowl.
<br>
<br>Bring a medium skillet sprayed with nonstick spray to medium-high heat. Add mushrooms, onion, and pepper. Cook and stir until softened, 3 - 5 minutes. Transfer veggies to the bowl with sausage and bacon. Add tomato, stir, and set aside.
<br>
<br>If needed, wash and dry skillet. Remove from heat, re-spray, and bring to medium heat. Add egg substitute and let it coat the skillet bottom. Cover and cook until solid enough to flip, about 3 minutes.
<br>
<br>Flip egg and top one half with filling. Sprinkle filling with cheese. Cover skillet and cook until cheese melts, about 1 minute.
<br>
<br>Fold egg over filling and transfer to a plate. Enjoy!
