How to Make Biggest Loser Southwestern Omelet

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 large eggs, 1 tablespoon chopped green bell pepper, 1 tablespoon chopped red onion, 1 tablespoon chopped black olives, 1/4 cup chopped mushrooms, 1/4 cup chopped tomatoes, and a pinch of salt and pepper.
  2. Lightly spray a medium non-stick skillet with olive oil cooking spray and place over medium heat.
  3. Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes, or until the edges begin to set.
  4. Using a spatula, gently lift the edges of the omelet, allowing the uncooked egg to flow underneath.
  5. Once the top is mostly set but still slightly wet, sprinkle with 1 tablespoon shredded cheddar cheese.
  6. Carefully fold the omelet in half.
  7. Remove from heat and serve immediately, topped with 1 tablespoon salsa and 1 tablespoon light sour cream (optional).

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
