Make this kale and avocado omelet for a satiating, high-protein breakfast. Fiber-rich kale will keep hunger at bay for longer in this healthy omelet recipe.

Prep/Cook Time: 10 Minutes, Servings: 1

Ingredients

  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon low-fat milk
  • ¼ teaspoon salt, divided
  • 2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided
  • 1 cup chopped kale
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro
  • 1 teaspoon unsalted sunflower seeds
  • Pinch of crushed red pepper
  • ¼ avocado, sliced

Directions

  1. Beat eggs with milk and ⅛ teaspoon salt in a small bowl. Heat 1 teaspoon oil in a small nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the egg mixture and cook until the bottom is set and the center is still a bit runny, 1 to 2 minutes. Flip the omelet over and cook until set, about 30 seconds more. Transfer to a plate.
  2. Toss kale with the remaining 1 teaspoon oil, lime juice, cilantro, sunflower seeds, crushed red pepper and the remaining ⅛ teaspoon salt. Top the omelet with the kale salad and avocado.
