Happy Mother's Day





My breakfast today turned into more of a brunch.



Still not feeling 100% and didn't have much energy...but since it is Mother's special day...I did put a little effort into the omelette.









I started by chopping a small piece of shallot, then it dawned on me I should be using the chives from outside.


I braved the wet grass...it's been mowed and grabbed a handful (chives..haha).





Ham, Cheese, and Spinach Omelette

1 cup egg whites
3 slices extra lean, thin sliced Black Forest Ham, chopped
1 cup spinach, roughly chopped
4 chive stalks, chopped
1/4 shallot, chopped
salt and pepper to taste
1/4 cup Asiago cheese
1 Tbsp olive oil


Heat a non stick frying pan, and add the shallots over medium high heat.

Cook until tender, and add the ham, spinach and chives. Cook another minute just to soften the spinach and chives.



Add the egg whites, and give a good stir to evenly distribute the ingredients.


Let the egg whites cook until almost almost firm. Add salt and pepper evenly over the top.


Sprinkle the cheese over the top, continue cooking a few minutes more until the cheese has started to melt.




Using two spatulas, or egg flippers, roll the omelette. Continue cooking to ensure the omelette seals, flip once or twice.



Serve with fresh fruit.



Happy Mother's Day to all the wonderful Mothers.
