Healthy recipes: Breakfast Omelet

A quick and easy breakfast:
2 large eggs
beaten 1/4 cup (1 ounce) cheddar cheese, shredded
Salt (optional)
Pepper (optional)
Chopped red bell pepper(optional)
Chopped fresh parsley(optional)

Spray 10-inch skillet with no-stick cooking spray; heat skillet over medium heat. Pour beaten eggs into skillet; cook 30 seconds; sprinkle with salt and pepper, if desired. Lift edge of eggs and pull toward the center while lifting pan to allow uncooked egg to cover pan; repeat as needed until mixture is set (2 to 3 minutes).
Sprinkle cheese over half of omelet; gently flip 1 side of omelet over filling. Carefully slide omelet onto serving plate. Sprinkle with chopped red pepper and parsley, if desired.

Healthy recipes: Cold wrap

One of the first steps in a better body is better eating! So the first thing I've tried is something of an old favorite (and probably one of the only healthy things I've ever eaten) the Cold Wrap.
Basically you just take a wrap (or tortilla..same thing) add some chopped lettuce, carrots, cheese, maybe some dressing, green peppers, baby spinach leaves, diced tomatoes, or whatever else you want. Now you can stop at that and have a veggie wrap, or you can add some meat.
Buffalo chicken is my favorite. But grilled chicken and some diced ham is good too. (NOTE: this is a cold wrap...so meat must also be cold...I'm not so sure how it would taste hot, but you can try it.)
And with Thanksgiving tomorrow you'll have plenty more leftovers to try on the wrap.
