2010The Sassy Omelet
Good morning! Are you hungry? I know I am! I’d say I pretty much have omelet making under control, especially when we compare it to my first omelet. Whew!
What You Need
2 eggs
a dollop of milk/soymilk/almond milk/etc
fresh spinach
tomatoes
faux ground beef ( Morning Star, Yyves, etc )
What You Do
I didn’t include measurements here because it’s really all to taste. What you’ll want to do is whip up the eggs and milk together in a small bowl and then put them into your medium sized pan and let it cook until it’s mostly solid.
While this is cooking, in a smaller pan put a small amount of margarine in there to just coat the bottom, and then add a small handful of faux meat (I use Yyves, but have used Morning Star in the past, both are good, but Yyves is sassier), along with your spinach, and then you can add your cheese/teese/daiya (or leave it out entirely!) sprinkled on top. And salt and pepper if you wish! Only let this cook for about 2-3 minutes (faux meat only needs to be warmed, not cooked), until the spinach is shriveled and dark green. You don’t want as much as I have picture here unless you’re making more than one omelet.
Put the ingredients on one side of the omelet once the egg has cooked and flip the other side on top of it. Transfer to plate and you’re done!
Corporate Portraits
As you can tell I do corporate work, but what interests me about your photography is the natural feel you have achieved. I know that does not come easily and try to do the same style in my photography. Plus the omelet looks very nice. Grant

Thank you so much, Grant! I just checked your blog, you’ve quite quite a knack in portraiture! Thanks so much for the visit and comment.
Elly
Oh wow! Everytime I try to make omelette it’s an epic fail (no, really, egg everywhere), but you make it sound so easy! Also, I’d never heard faux beef before! That sounds rather clever (and may be the saving grace at my attempt at vege lasagne, something which I’m also not very good at!). Does it taste like beef?
Sara
You know, Elly, I’m not really sure. I haven’t had ground beef in a long time. But omnivores who have tried it in spaghetti sauce, lasagna, or casserole don’t seem to notice. I think if you have it IN something, it does a very nice job.

When I saw the photos of the meat I frantically scrolled down to verify whether you really were having a natto omelet, because that’s exactly what it looks like. I’m relieved to see that you weren’t.
Sara
I totally had to Google that and am relieved I didn’t have it either! YUCK.
Lee Harth
love the food photos. Words and photos my desire too but I started a lot later than you still better late than never.
Sara
Thanks Lee! Better late than never is the truth! One can never have too many photos to look at, I say!

For the record, MorningStar meatless crumbles aren’t vegan. I forget what they have; I’ll have to look when I get home, but I think it’s a milk ingredient. Not sure about Yves. I have never heard of that brand!
The omelet looks amaaaazing!
Sara
Yves is a Canadian brand, I just realized! The packaged veggie alternatives aren’t SUPER good for you anyway, but these are at least vegan friendly. =]
I’d like to learn how to make my own but until then, Yves will do the trick.
