Mushroom Omelette 135cals

A quick and easy recipe that is low calorie and makes a good meal. (1 serving)
Ingredients:
1 egg (80cals)
2 egg whites (30cals)
Half tin of mushrooms (15cals)
Salt and pepper to taste
Total = 135 cals.

Optional extras include:
Ketchup (15cals per tbsp)
Salsa (5-15cals per tbsp)
Chopped onion, spinache, sliced wafer thin ham/turkey etc.

1. Spoon out half a tin of mushrooms (around 130g) in to a bowl. Try not to spoon out too much water.
2. Break one egg and two egg whites in to the bowl.
3. Stir well, add salt and pepper to taste.
4. Put in microwave on full power. Stir every 30secs until the egg has set but is not too rubbery or dry.
5. Eat

Notes: You can use ALL egg whites if you like but I find omelettes taste alot better with atleast one egg yolk. Don't forget to count calories for any other ingredients you add. Can be served with a salad. This meal is filling as it contains both protein and fibre.
