Big Omelet

This hinges on finding the *right* Canadian Bacon.  The stuff I use is 1 point/4 slices (2 oz).  For the written point-value use 1-point of c.bacon.

Mix together

  • 1 egg
  • 3 egg whites
  • salt/pepper/garlic to taste

(Yes, I understand you will not be tasting raw egg.  I mean experiment and find what you like.)

Slice/cube and generally make small enough to fit in an omlet

  • 4 slices lowest fat Canadian Bacon
  • 1/4 tomato
  • 1/4 green pepper
  • Some red onion
  • 1 wedge light Laughing Cow cheese

Proceed as for any omelet– I’ll give my way, but it’s not authoritative.

Pour egg mixture into omelet-sized pan, wait till it starts to set, then add filling(s) on one side.  Fold one edge over the filling and cover the pan to hold teh heat in and set the rest of the egg.

After a bit I go back and do my best to flip the omelet onto its filling-side– though this can be a little messy, I prefer the result.

I like this with a selection of 1-point bread, usually with 0-point spread and a sprinkling of cinnamon sugar.  Makes a *filling* breakfast that costs 6 points, and holds me solidly till lunch without snacks.
