If you need a break from smoothies or your cereal box makes you sad, here’s an easy lean veggie omelette recipe that is packed with plant nutrients and will start your day off right. (It’s already a high protein breakfast but make sure to read the pro tip at the end to add even more protein!)

How to make a vegetable omelette

If you’re picturing a chef at the omelette station of your favorite brunch spot and wondering if you have the needed culinary skills, don’t worry. You don’t need any special training to make this veggie omelette.

Sure, you can make a traditional omelette base that you fill with vegetables you sauteed ahead of time and delicately fold it over for that professional look. But in this recipe we’ve combined some steps to save time without compromising the delicious flavor!

You don’t need a special pan to make this, but a nonstick pan is highly recommended. It will make preparation and cleanup super easy and you won’t need as much oil while cooking.
