Omelette in Reverse

Some people think that eating clean and healthy limits your options. Well, I'm here to say: THAT'S NOT TRUE! I'm constantly finding new and exciting ways to incorporate nutrition-packed foods into my diet.
So today, I decided to try a reversed omelette!




What you'll need:
- 1 red bell pepper, cut in half, seeds and ribs removed
- 1 egg
- 6 tbsp eggwhites
- omelette fillings! (I only used turkey bacon and spinach)
- spices, to taste (I used cayenne, red pepper, oregano, thyme, and parseley) 

What you gotta do:
1. Pre-heat the oven (or toaster oven) to 400
2. In a bowl, mix all the ingredients except the pepper
3. Once mixed, divide the mixed goods and pour them into the pepper halves.
4. Pop 'em in the oven for about 15 minutes, and cook until the eggs are cooked!

Note: You can add whatever you want into this egg-cellent meal! Add in peppers, onions, ham, and whatever else you like in your omelettes! You could even top it with cheese!


Aside from it's nutrition, the best part about this meal is that you can have it anytime! As a hearty breakfast, a light lunch, or a side-dish at dinner!

Nutrition (with the ingredients listed above):
234 calories
7g of fat (egg + turkey)
11g carbs (veggies)
31g protein! (turkey + egg/egg whites)!
*if you add additional ingredients, don't forget to account for them!

There you have it! Nutritious and delicious!
