Vegetable Cheese Omelette

This is a healthy omlette as it is good source of proteins and has a small amount of carbs. The cheddar cheese is from cows which is a healthy source of fat and having this in the morning is great when your metabolic rate is high. Note that i have used only 1 egg yolk from the 4 eggs as that is a good combination.

3 egg whites
1 egg
1 1/2 tsp olive oil
1/2 onion, chopped
1 green chilli, finely chopped
1/2 chopped tomato
2 mushrooms, chopped
salt to taste
2 to 3 tablespoons grated cheddar cheese

For the filling
Heat 1 tsp oil in a frying pan and add the onion and fry for a minute.
Add the green chilli, tomato, mushrooms and salt to taste and fry again till well cooked. Keep aside.

How to proceed
1. Beat eggs in small bowl with fork or wire whisk until yolks and whites are well mixed.
2. Heat a non stick pan and add 1/2 tsp oil.
3. Add the egg mixture and cook on a medium flame till the egg is lightly done.
4. Add the vegetable filling and grated cheese to the centre of the omelette.
5. Fold the omelette and serve hot.
