Omelet Recipe and Shopping List!

By: Lance Sganzini

Cooking for bodybuilding can lead to a monotonous ordeal of egg whites, chicken and protein shakes. Lean, high protein food doesn't have to be bland and boring. At the Sganzini house we have developed a series of recipes for my diet but are also tasty for the rest of the family. We will be posting a recipe each month to help you discover ways to spice up your menu. Also, we have included our grocery list so you can get an idea of how to shop for our recipes.

My Favorite Omelets

Remove the boredom and tastelessness frm the usual egg-white breakfast with this tasty twist!

5 egg whites (include 1 yolk)
2 strips lean turky bacon (browned and cut into bite size pieces)
4 olives (sliced) or try Kalamata olives for more flavor
1/2 ouce feta cheese
3 thin slices avocado
1 slice roma tomato (diced)

Scramble the egg whites and yolk and pour into a good non-stick omelet pan. After one side is done flip the omelet completely over (this requires some practice dur to the size of the omelet). Spread the ingredients on 1/2 of the omelet. When the bottom is cooked, fold the omelet in half and server.

We use feta cheese because a little bit goes a long way for flavor. If you are not a feta fan, you can change to a reduced fat cheddar or mozzarella. Kalamata olives are the best, but difficult to find at some grocery stores. Usually the deli or gourmet food section will be the place to look.

A quick and painless way to cook bacon is to use the microwave. Place several napkins or paper towels on a paper plate. Put the bacon strips on top of the napkins and cover with several more napkins and another paper plate. Microwave the whole apparatus for 2 - 3 minutes until bacon is crip. Remover the bacon and throw the mess (and fat) away!

Enjoy! Check back next month for another great recipe.
