BELL PEPPER VEGETARIAN OMELET
Steps:
- Gather the ingredients.
- Crack eggs into a medium bowl. Add salt, pepper, and garlic powder, if using. Vigorously beat together with a fork, incorporating as much air as possible. Reserve.
- Heat a 10-inch nonstick skillet or omelet pan over medium heat and add the olive oil. Add the diced onion, if using, and sauté for 3 to 5 minutes until tender.
- Add the chopped peppers and cook for 3 to 4 minutes or just until the bell peppers are slightly tender. Turn off the heat.
- Let the vegetables cool slightly, then add them to the reserved beaten eggs and combine well.
- Using several paper towels, carefully wipe off the skillet and place it back over medium-low heat.
- Add the butter and move the pan around to make sure the butter coats the entire bottom.
- Pour the egg mixture into the pan.
- Tilt the pan as you lift the edges of the omelet to allow the uncooked parts in the middle to flow out to the edges. This helps the eggs to cook quicker and more evenly.
- Allow your vegetable omelet to cook until the bottom of the eggs is solid but not brown at all.
- Using a rubber spatula, flip it over entirely and let it cook for 1 to 2 minutes before transferring to a plate. Or, fold the omelet in half and slide it off the pan onto a plate. The interior should be moist but not raw. Cut in half for 2 servings and enjoy!

LEEK AND PEPPER OMELETTE
I found this recipe in Janet Wright's book "The top 100 health tips", published by Lifetime Distributers, Castle Hill, Australia. Janet says "Eating the right meal within an hour or two after excercise could make the biggest difference you've noticed yet. That's the time when your body needs - and most effectively uses - food to turn your effort into stronger muscles and increased energy levels. It's also when you burn fat most effectively. Eggs are a concentrated source of muscle-building amino acids and other body-building nutrients. They're also rich in vitamin K, which helps to heal bruises and other minor sports injuries. This vitamin works by ensuring that blood is able to clot normally, so it could also reduce the danger of blood clots in arteries." The original recipe called for groundnut oil, but I think butter would work just fine - or any other oil you have on hand. This would make a nice breakfast for an extremely hungry person, or could be shared among a few people. If you're just making it for yourself, you might want to halve it. I haven't tried this recipe yet.
