Fresh mushrooms and eggs make a great low fat omelet breakfast. Add some fresh herbs and some turkey bacon and you have a breakfast that will keep the whole family happy.
8 oz sliced fresh mushrooms (canned mushrooms suck in this dish)
4 large eggs, 8 egg white or whatever amount of egg substitute suits you
1 clove garlic, minced
1 T fresh chives or 1 tsp dried chives
1 T fresh parsley or 1 tsp dried
1 tsp other fresh herbs such as thyme, oregano, sage, basil ... or a pinch of dried stuff
2 tsp butter or some cooking spray
Saute the mushrooms in 1tsp butter or cooking spray until lightly browned. You can salt them but until they start to brown. When the mushrooms are almost done add the garlic and chives and about 1 minute to 90 seconds. Set the mushrooms aside.
While the mushrooms are cooking beat the eggs for the omelet. Adding a tablespoon of water might make the eggs lighter if you choose. Add the other tsp of butter to the pan and poor in the eggs. Let them set for a minute then start lifting the side of the eggs and tilting the pan to allow the uncooked egg to slide under the cooked egg. Keep doing this until the eggs are almost set. Add the mushrooms and the rest of the herbs. Fold half the egg over and serve.
