How to Make Whittle Your Waist Line With A Fluffy Omelet

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a mixing bowl, gently combine the egg yolks and cottage cheese until well blended. Season with salt and pepper.
  3. In a separate clean, grease-free bowl, using a hand mixer or whisk, beat the egg whites until stiff, glossy peaks form.

  6. Sauté the onion and bell pepper in the skillet until softened, about 3-5 minutes.
  7. Pour the egg mixture into the skillet.
  8. Cook on the stovetop for about 2 minutes, until the edges are set.
  9. Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 10-15 minutes, or until the omelet is puffed and golden brown.
