Filled omelet with chicken and vegetables, skinny, fast, and low in carbohydrates. A healthy recipe for the whole family. Ready in 20 minutes and very delicious.
After the busy weekend, it’s Monday again. A new week, with new healthy and skinny recipes. Easy to make and it doesn’t take long, so ideal for a Monday when our schedule is over the top with all kinds of activities. Our youngest ate even two plates full of veggies, which is a very good count.
- Slice everything in advance, so it's done when you start to cook. Stir-frying is a real quick cooking method, and you don't want to burn your food.
- This is a great recipe to use your leftover vegetables like pepper, tomatoes, and that half leek that's laying in the refrigerator.
- If you want to eat a vegetarian dish, exchange the chicken with mushrooms and pepper.
- Veggies that are in their growing season have the most flavor so vary this recipe with those. So in summer use arugula and spinach instead of carrots and leek.
