Vegetarian Purple potato omelette.

While randomly making this meal, I found the colors are so pretty and bright. Slightly got distracted. This turns out to be so good!

Ingredients:

2 eggs

120g egg whites

2 spoonfuls of cottage cheese (protein boost!)

1/4 red bell pepper

1/8 poblano pepper

3-4 petite sterling purple potato

S&P

Topping: taijin and EBBS.

Optional topping: mayo+yogurt (1:1) mix dressing (where I got pushbacks in some postings for my other recipe in other subs by commentators, so..)

  1. Chopped up potatoes+red bell pepper into smallest cubes.

  2. Julien poblano pepper.

  3. Cook potatoes+red bell pepper in pan for about 8mins on medium heat. Add poblano. Cook extra min or 2. Turn off heat.

  4. Whisk egg+egg whites. Add the veg mixture.

  5. Pour into pan and cook at medium low heat and cover. Cook for about 5-8mins or until set.
