Mac and Cheese omelet

TheFinalThird

I grossed out my 12 year old son with my breakfast this morning, but my experiment was a GREAT SUCCESS. I like to start my days with lots of protein and lots of fiber, but not so many calories. Here's what I did. I took left over mac and cheese (kraft blue box, prepared with no butter and skim milk) and tossed it in a non-stick pan with olive oil mist spray along with chopped onions, green peppers and jalapenos. Let it all saute together. Then I tossed in an ounce or so of All Bran buds (for crunch and fiber). After it all got nice and brown, I poured in liquid egg whites and parmesan reggiano. Let it sit until the bottom got brown and crunchy, then flipped it to let the other side do the same. Topped the whole thing with chunky salsa. It looked like a giant, puffy pancake. Really, REALLY satisfying. And it has as many or as few calories as you want because you can increase or decrease the respective ingredients to your taste and calorie allowance.

My wife gets grossed out if I mix two different kinds of dry cereal together!

:laugh: OMG, that sounds fantastic. I think I'd try homemade mac 'n cheese. My mate eats the stuff out of the blue box. Dunno how he does it.

Kudos for some awesome sounding culinary bravery. :flowerforyou:
