Mom's One Egg Omelet (Recipe for an upset tummy)



You know the feeling-you or a loved one is feeling under the weather and you want (or want them to have) something to eat that will add some protein but won't weigh anyone down. My mom used to do this very simple one egg omelet for me--it's very thin and lacy, so it doesn't feel like too much food, but it gives sustenance. This is also great even if you are feeling terrific. You can add cheese, veggies, bacon, etc and bulk it up, but sometimes simple is best.

Ingredients: 
Cooking spray
One egg, beaten
Salt, to taste

Directions: Spray a large skillet with cooking spray and add the beaten egg, swirling it around to coat the whole bottom of the skillet. Cook, without stirring for about 2 minutes (the edges should look dry) and use a spatula to turn the whole thing over. Cook for another two minutes and sprinkle on a little salt.
