It’s An Egg-cellent Morning For An Omelette!
I am a busy girl, which I love don’t get me wrong. It certainly keeps me active! However, most days I am on my feet for at least eight hours a day running around. Between work, two dogs, and house chores, I can barely think straight by the end of the day. My daily tasks takes a lot energy out of me.
I find that I really need a good satisfying breakfast to keep my mood and energy levels up during the day. It has been said that having a healthy balanced diet every morning, sets you up for a successful day. I believe that one hundred percent, especially these last couple weeks which has been more hectic then usual. I have switched between a couple recipes over time (yogurt parfaits, toast, and oatmeal) and nothing has helped me as much as cooking up a healthy colorful omelete!
Omelettes are so versatile. They can be personally customized to fit your macros, and your favourite foods. Eggs can be easily incorporated into the diet, whether the goal is to maintain, gain or loss weight. As an egg contains only about 72 calories, and all the essential amino acids it is the perfect addition to anyone’s diet.
