An omelet is a versatile dish made from beaten eggs cooked in a skillet, often folded around a filling such as vegetables, cheese, meats, or herbs. Originating from French cuisine, it has become a staple in breakfasts and brunches worldwide due to its simplicity and adaptability. Nutritionally, an omelet is rich in high-quality protein, vitamins like B12, and minerals including iron and phosphorus, thanks to its egg base. Adding vegetables boosts fiber and antioxidants, while lean meats provide additional protein. However, some variations can be high in saturated fats and sodium, depending on ingredients like cheese, processed meats, or heavy oils. Opting for healthier fillings and cooking methods, such as using non-stick sprays or olive oil, can make it a nutrient-packed option for a balanced diet.
