Spinach & Mushroom Omelette

Breakfast is by far my favorite meal. I can’t be the only one, right?!

It’s one of the easiest meals to skip, yet it’s basically the most important meal of the day. I can attest that eating breakfast definitely helps reduce my hunger throughout my day.

During the week I try to prepare quick and easy breakfasts, such as my Simple Blueberry Smoothie recipe. But during the weekend I definitely like to treat myself to a heartier meal.

This weekend I made a vegetarian omelette with spinach and mushrooms! It’s probably my new favorite omelette combo. 

Here’s the recipe I used: 

Ingredients:

• Handful of baby spinach
• Handful of sliced mushrooms
• 6 eggs (for 2 people)
• 1 tablespoon Parmesan cheese
• Chili powder to taste
• Salt and pepper

Direction:

1. Wash your spinach leaves and mushrooms thoroughly.
2. In a small skillet warm up a dash of olive oil and toss in your mushrooms. Once your mushrooms are almost ready toss in the spinach. They don’t take long to wither.
3. Beat your eggs in a separate bowl and add your seasonings and Parmesan cheese.
4. Add the cooked veggies to the egg mixture.
5. In a large frying pan, cover surface with olive oil and pour your eggs mixture.
6. Lift the edges lightly and let some batter pour under your omelette.
7. Once the top of your omelette almost cooked, flip it over!
8. I suggest adding some mozzarella cheese on half of the omelette before folding over.
9. Cut in half and serve!

I added avocado on top of my omelette and a little more Parmesan cheese!

So yummy!

Simple Blueberry Breakfast Smoothie

Coming up with different breakfast ideas everyday isn’t always an easy task. However, my main goal was to stop skipping breakfast, or cheap out and have a bagel instead of something nutritious. I’ve definitely been the kind of girl that had coffee and water as my breakfast every single day. Terrible, I know…

But it was time for a change! I might only be a couple of weeks into this new healthier lifestyle, but my energy levels have massively improved since I started eating breakfast everyday… a healthy breakfast!

My favorite breakfast options lately have been fruit parfaits, overnight oats, breakfast bowls and smoothies!

Here’s the recipe for my go-to fruit smoothie. For the record, I don’t measure anything precisely, with smoothies it’s very easy to add ice or water, to improve the consistency.

• Handful of ice cubes
• 1 cup of half orange juice / half water
• 3 tablespoons of Greek Yogurt
• 1 teaspoon of flax seed (probably could have added more!)
• 1 cup frozen blueberries
• 1 cup frozen strawberries
• Topped with a few fresh blueberries

Do you have any favorite ingredients you recommend adding to my morning smoothies?

I really want to try a smoothie with coconut milk…

Healthy Fruit Parfait

Good morning sunshine!

As I have been on a little health kick lately, I’ve decided to share what I had for breakfast this morning. Because I washed my fruits the day before, this only took me 5 minutes to prepare this morning.

• 100 grams of Greek Yogurt (Vanilla and Chocolate)
• 100 grams of Natural Hemp Granola
• 1 full chopped banana
• Handful of raspberries and blackberries

I simply layered all the ingredients in the order mentioned above, into a small mason jar and ate it on my way to work. It was super delicious AND looked pretty adorable as well.
