Feta Omelet with Mixed Greens
I am always looking to eat something yummy with the gg crackers I eat everyday. Since they are not the yummiest things to eat, I like to pair them up with a healthy and delicious protein. I usually eat a couple for breakfast with some low fat cheese and hummus. I try to have few for lunch as well and sometime run out of ideas.
I usually eat them with cheese and salmon or whatever protein I have in the fridge.
For this meal I decided to make an omelet for myself. I love eggs for the protein and taste. They fill me up, especially with the gg crackers. I took two eggs beaten with a splash of milk. I also added feta cheese – just a bit. Feta is lower in fat than the other cheeses so it is a good choice. I then added a cup or more of mixed greens right into the omelet. It is like having a salad with my eggs. I folded the omelet and served it with the crackers.
The omelet is simple and super healthy with just a bit of oil. Try this meal next time you run out of ideas for lunch or breakfast especially if you are eating the gg crackers.

Indian Style Spiced Omelet
I make this for dinner, lunch or brunch whenever I run out of ideas. Most of the times I forget about this easy to make, spicy omelet. I grew up eating this at home for breakfast. It is flavorful and gorgeous to look at. Indian omelets unlike the french ones are cooked thoroughly and are cooked with all the flavorings and herbs instead of being stuffed with them.
It is also easy to make since most of the ingredients are always available. I have green chilies, green onions, tomatoes and of course cheese at home. I feel lost if there is no cilantro in the house. It is a pantry meal- pair it with a delicious green salad and it is a healthy, balanced meal.
You can make this omelet with almost anything in the fridge. My daughter was eating some leftovers and my husband was going out after work and so I was the only one without dinner plans. I made this delicious meal for myself and enjoyed it with a glass of white wine.
