VEGETABLE OMELET

Makes 2 servings

If you don’t want to have this for breakfast, try it at lunchtime instead. Or make it a light supper.

1/2 cup chopped fresh
mushrooms

1/2 cup chopped green bell
pepper

Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

1 cup egg substitute

1 Roma tomato, diced

Spray a medium nonstick skillet with cooking spray and heat over medium heat. Add the mushrooms and bell pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and black pepper, transfer to a bowl, and wipe out the skillet with a damp paper towel.

Spray the skillet again with cooking spray and heat over medium heat. Add the egg substitute and cook until the center starts to set, about 2 minutes. Spoon the vegetables over the omelet. Lift with a spatula so the uncooked portion of egg can flow to the edge to cook. Cut the omelet in half, transfer to two plates, and top each serving with diced tomato.
