Had an abundance of turkey from Thanksgiving and plenty of veggies in my winter garden so figured a nice healthy omelet for dinner might help out the recovery from the nutrient lacking foods I ate the day before.
I started by collecting about cup of red curly leafed kale and a leaf of Bok Choy and a green onion from the garden. Washed and dried to the best of my ability. Trimmed off the stem of the kale and chopped all into small ribbon size pieces. I also had some chopped spinach lying around so added that as well. Added veggies to skillet at medium high heat with about a teaspoon of olive oil and allowed to cook for 5-6 minutes.
Added cooked veggies to a bowl with 3 eggs beaten and mixed quickly to combine.
Cut a half cup of chicken along with a slice of bacon and and cooked until browned. Added another teaspoon of olive oil, dropped the heat to low and added egg/veggie mixture. Topped with once slice (0.75 ounce) of pepper jack cheese and covered until completely cooked.
