Omelette with Tomato, Onion, and Low-Fat Cheese, Whole Wheat English Muffin

Ingredients

• Eggs 3 large
• Tomato 1/2 medium
• Onion 1/4 medium
• Low-fat shredded cheese 1/4 cup
• Whole wheat English muffin 1 piece

Method

1. Prepare ingredients. Wash the tomato and onion thoroughly. Dice the tomato into small cubes. Peel and dice the onion finely. Crack the 3 large eggs into a bowl and whisk them well until the yolks and whites are fully combined.
   Tip: Use a sharp knife for easier dicing and to avoid crushing the tomato.
2. Cook the onion and tomato. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add a small spray or teaspoon of cooking oil if desired. Add the diced onion to the skillet and cook for about 3-4 minutes until they soften and become translucent. Then add the diced tomato and cook for another 2 minutes to release their juices.
   Tip: Stir occasionally to prevent sticking and burning.
3. Add eggs and cheese. Pour the whisked eggs evenly over the cooked onions and tomatoes in the skillet. Let the eggs cook undisturbed for about 1-2 minutes until they start to set around the edges. Sprinkle the low-fat shredded cheese evenly over the eggs. Reduce heat to low and cover the skillet with a lid to help the cheese melt and the eggs cook through without burning.
   Tip: Use a spatula to gently lift edges to check if the eggs are cooked underneath.
4. Toast the English muffin. While the omelette cooks, split the whole wheat English muffin in half and toast it in a toaster or toaster oven until golden brown and crisp.
   Tip: Toast to your preferred level of crispness.
5. Finish and serve. Once the omelette is fully set and the cheese melted, carefully slide it onto a plate. Serve immediately with the toasted whole wheat English muffin on the side.
   Tip: For easier serving, loosen edges gently with a spatula before sliding out.

Pro tips
