High-Protein Zucchini Omelet for One

This easy High-Protein Zucchini Omelet, for one, is a healthy breakfast or lunch. Over 36 grams of protein and 1 cup of veggies!

I’ve been prioritizing protein and vegetables, making it a point to add one cup of veggies to every meal. It’s a great way to get your daily fiber – I aim for at least 25 grams each day. Omelets are such an easy way to achieve this goal! This vegetarian omelet has a whole cup of zucchini and a mix of egg and egg whites for extra-lean protein.

Ingredients:

• 1 teaspoon olive oil
• 1/4 cup red onion, chopped
• 1 cup zucchini, diced into matchsticks
• 1 large egg
• 3/4 cup egg whites
• 2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese, grated or shredded
• 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
• fresh black pepper, to taste
