Breakfast for champions

By Rhonda Campbell
Eggs are one of the most eaten breakfast foods and rightfully so. Loaded with protein, eggs are easy to prepare. Add in the right ingredients, and eggs become a filling food. Furthermore, of all the dishes you can cook using eggs, breakfast sandwiches and omelets are dishes that millions of Americans order from restaurants and food trucks each morning.

You don’t have to live West to love this breakfast omelet

However, you don’t have to go to a restaurant and pay for an omelet to enjoy a hearty egg breakfast. You can make this omelet at home in less than 20 minutes. Ingredients you need are:

• Two eggs (if you’re especially hungry and want a large omelet, go for three eggs)
• Smoked turkey (use lunch meat so the meat is thin and less chewy)
• 1 tablespoon of margarine or butter
• 1 small onion
• 1 small red pepper
• Salt
• Pepper
• 1/4 cup of mild shredded cheddar cheese (an alternative you can use is two slices of American cheese or another favorite processed cheese)

Dice the onion and red pepper. Use 1/2 a cup of the onion and red pepper. Place the remainder of the vegetables in a small container, seal and place in the refrigerator.

Next, grease a medium sized skillet with the margarine or butter. Break the eggs in the skillet. Stir the eggs until they are well blended. Make sure the eggs are spread across the skillet.

Drop in the onion, pepper and cheese. Season lightly with salt and pepper. Let the food cook until the egg is lightly browned and the cheese is melted. This should take about three minutes.

Fold the egg in half.

Remove from omelet from the skillet with a spatula and serve with a bowl of fresh strawberries, a banana or another fruit you absolutely love during breakfast. Enjoy!
