Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Crack the whole egg into a bowl and add 3 egg whites. Beat the eggs until yolk and whites are thoroughly combined.
- Shred the cheddar cheese if not already shredded.
- Dice the turkey sausage into small, bite-sized pieces.
- Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
- Add the diced turkey sausage to the pan. Cook, stirring occasionally, until it's browned and heated through, about 3-4 minutes. Remove the sausage from the skillet and set it aside.
- Lightly coat the same skillet with a non-stick cooking spray or a small amount of oil.
- Pour the beaten eggs into the skillet, tilting the pan to spread them evenly across the bottom.
- Let the eggs cook undisturbed until they start to set around the edges, about 2-3 minutes.
- Once the eggs begin to set, sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the surface.
- Scatter the cooked turkey sausage over the cheese.
- Use a spatula to carefully fold the omelet in half, covering the fillings.
- Continue to cook for another minute or until the cheese is melted and the eggs are cooked through but still moist.
- Slide the omelet onto a plate.
- Serve immediately, accompanied by your favorite sides such as toast, salad, or fresh fruit.
Tips:
- Ensure that your pan is well-heated and prepped with a nonstick spray or a small amount of butter to prevent sticking.
- Beat the whole egg and egg whites together thoroughly for a consistent texture.
- Cook the omelet on medium-low heat to avoid overcooking and to achieve a soft, fluffy texture.
- Consider adding vegetables such as spinach, bell peppers, or onions for extra nutrition and flavor.
- Fold the omelet gently to retain its airy texture and to ensure that the filling stays inside.
With just a few simple ingredients and some easy-to-follow tips, you can create a delicious and nutritious turkey sausage omelet that's perfect for any time of the day.
