Ingredients

• 4 large Eggs
• 2 large Egg whites
• 0.5 cup Red bell pepper, diced
• 1 cup Spinach, chopped
• 0.5 cup Cherry tomatoes, halved
• 0.5 cup Mushrooms, sliced
• 0.25 cup Onion, finely chopped
• 0.25 cup Low-fat cottage cheese
• 1 teaspoon Olive oil or cooking spray
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.25 teaspoon Paprika (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Crack the eggs into a bowl, add the egg whites, and whisk until fully combined. Add salt, black pepper, and paprika (if using) to the mixture and set aside.

Step 2

Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium heat and add olive oil or cooking spray.

Step 3

Once the skillet is hot, add the onion and sauté for 2-3 minutes until translucent.

Step 4

Stir in the diced red bell pepper, mushrooms, and cherry tomatoes. Cook for another 3-4 minutes until the vegetables soften.

Step 5

Add the chopped spinach and cook for 1-2 minutes until wilted. Remove the cooked vegetables from the skillet and set aside.

Step 6

Reduce the heat to low and pour the egg mixture into the skillet. Quickly tilt the skillet to spread the eggs evenly across the surface.

Step 7

As the eggs begin to set (about 1-2 minutes), scatter the cooked vegetables evenly over half of the omelette.

Step 8

Add dollops of cottage cheese on top of the vegetables for an extra protein boost.

Step 9

Carefully fold the other half of the omelette over the filling using a spatula and let it cook for another 1-2 minutes until the eggs are fully set and lightly golden on the outside.

Step 10

Transfer the omelette to a plate, cut in half, and serve warm. Enjoy your high-protein vegetable omelette!
