This easy High-Protein Zucchini Omelet, for one, is a healthy way to start the morning. It’s a huge meal with over 36 grams of protein and 1 cup of veggies!

High-Protein Zucchini Omelet

olive oil

red onion (chopped)

zucchini

egg whites

Parmesan cheese (grated

salt

black pepper (to taste)

An egg is the organic vessel containing the zygote in which an animal embryo develops until it can survive on its own, at which point the animal hatches. An egg results from fertilization of an ovum. Most arthropods, vertebrates, and mollusks lay eggs, although some do not, such as scorpions and most mammals. Reproductive structures...

Egg white

Black pepper

red onion

Over medium-low heat, heat oil in a medium nonstick skillet.

Stir in onion and cook until golden, about 2 to 3 minutes.

Add zucchini and season with 1/8 teaspoon salt and black pepper, to taste and cook 3 to 4 more minutes stirring occasionally, until tender.

In a medium bowl, whisk egg, egg whites, Parmesan, 1/4 teaspoon salt and black pepper.

Add eggs to the skillet making sure eggs cover all the vegetables. Cover and cook until the eggs set, about 5 minutes.

Flip it over onto your plate and serve with hot sauce, or sriracha if desired.

AMAZING!  High volume, high protein, low calorie meal that's so easy to make!  Added some salsa for a kick.  This was so large, I had to fold it over to put on a plate.  This recipe will be on repeat for me!  Thank you.

Used chives from the garden instead of red onion, and Pecorino Romano in lieu of Parmesan (can’t have cow’s milk cheese.) Super delicious change from my normal additions of arugula and goat cheese!

I make this about every morning, so good and filling.  1 egg 2 egg whites, 1/2 cup zucchini and 3 mushrooms and a sprinkle of cheese, also add nutritional yeast and garlic..

I'm trying to incorporate more veggies into my diet despite not liking them. Zucchini is one I can handle so I tried this recipe for breakfast.  I followed exactly as written and added diced ham for extra protein. So delicious and versatile! I think mushrooms would be a great addition too! This will be on my regular rotation.

I've had this for breakfast the last two days- so delicious! I did add a little oregano to the zucchini because I love oregano and zucchini together. So yummy and very filling.

I made the omelet this morning and it was delicious &amp; so filling. I added a half cup of spinach because I needed to use it up. This one will be on repeat this summer! Thank you!

Just made this today as I was looking for high protein recipes.  This was soooo delish! Thank you ☺️

Delicious filling brunch after a workout! I subbed scallions for red onion, two eggs &amp; 1 white &amp; a little milk for the egg mixture, and topped with meat hot sauce (Rochester NY, y’all)… absolutely delicious! Thanks for a winning recipe.

Just made this for breakfast this morning. Only ate half because it was so filling but tasted amazing!!  I gave my husband the other half and he asked me to make it again. Love how much protein it has too!! I highly recommend making this! Next time I plan to add some turkey sausage! ;)

I use a tablespoon or so of salsa on mine.  Just have to remember to check the sodium count.

This is awesome! I am loving these high protein recipes so much, and appreciate them Gina! This was perfect after my workout this morning. 

I added spinach in place of zucchini as I didn't have any zucs on hand!  It turned out great!  Fluffy and filling!  Thank you!

This is immense!  I am attractied to high volume dishes that make me feel full longer.
I usually slightly understeason while cooking- you can always add more salt and pepper at the table. 
My vegetables were still crunchy, which was incongruous with the tender  eggs. I  will cook them longer next time, and try to be more patient!
This is really a master recipe (a la Julie Child) for a vegetable omelet.

Tasty, easy, and a large serving. I used asparagus instead of zucchini since that's what I had on hand.  I almost felt guilty eating the whole thing...almost :D

I really liked this! My breakfast routine was getting boring and this is now a new option in the rotation! Instead of the siracha, I was wondering if there is an Italian hot sauce or maybe just top with a few quartered cherry tomatoes or drizzle with a tablespoon or two of marinara sauce?

This was delicious!  I had some leftover roasted zucchini I had in the fridge already seasoned with some basil, salt and pepper.  A huge serving that really filled me up for a super quick lunch.  
Thank you!

Delicious zucchini omelet and so easy to make. Thanks for sharing another amazing recipe.

Had this for breakfast this morning-another winner from you-it was so good and filling!

Kris Yenbamroong of Night + Market restaurant has a quick, easy pad Thai recipe with ingredients you can find at any grocery store, and cook on a weeknight. 

Pad Thai From Kris Yenbamroong

rice stick noodles (1/8 to 1/3 inch wide)

sugar

fish sauce

white vinegar

vegetable oil

chicken thighs,

bean sprouts

green onions,

peanuts

roasted chile powder

lime wedge

Soak the noodles in warm water for 30 minutes, until pliable enough to bend around a finger. (If you’re not using them immediately, you can drain the noodles and keep them in the fridge until ready to use.) 

In a small bowl, stir together the sugar, fish sauce, and vinegar to make a sauce.

Heat an empty wok over high heat until it begins to smoke, then swirl in the oil. Once the oil is shimmering, add the chicken or tofu and stir-fry until the meat turns opaque but isn’t fully cooked, which should take about a minute (less time for shrimp—they will cook a little more quickly). Add the noodles and sauce, then continue to stir-fry, constantly stirring, until the noodles absorb the sauce, about another minute.

Use your spatula to push aside the noodles and leave them there, making an empty space in the center of the wok. Crack the egg into the empty space and let it cook until the edges start to set, 15 to 20 seconds. Use the edge of your spatula to break up and roughly scramble the egg, then toss it back in with the noodles while the egg is still soft. Once the egg looks mostly cooked, remove from the heat and throw in the bean sprouts and green onions, tossing thoroughly to combine. Transfer to a plate and garnish with the peanuts, chile powder, and lime wedge.
