I've noticed that when I make the time to sit down and enjoy a balanced breakfast, I really do feel much better for the rest of the day. On the other hand, I understand that we can't always sit down to eat pancakes, especially if we have young children who we have to attend to and prepare for school. In my case, from the moment I wake up until my kids leave for school, there's no time for me to rest; I prepare their lunch at the same time I'm getting breakfast ready, so having a repertoire of quick breakfasts is very important to me. My husband loves eggs, especially omelets, and he easily convinced the rest of my family that they're delicious, so now they're a household favorite. Preparing an omelet only takes a few minutes and it'll keep you satisfied for a few hours. Our list of omelet recipes is extensive, but today I'll share one of our favorites with you.
