Fruity Cottage Cheese Omelette

Fruity Cottage Cheese Omelette combines sweet and savoury flavours in a quick breakfast. The unexpected addition of canned fruit salad adds natural sweetness, while cottage cheese provides protein and a mild tang. Using a non-stick pan and gently pushing the edges as it cooks ensures an evenly cooked omelette. This balanced meal comes together in just 10 minutes, making it ideal for busy mornings.
Ingredients
- 2 eggs
- 1 tbsp (15 mL) water
- ¼ cup (60 mL) pressed cottage cheese or ricotta cheese
- ¼ cup (60 mL) canned fruit salad, drained
- Icing sugar (optional)
Instructions
- Step 1
Whisk eggs and water in small bowl.
- Step 2
Spray 8-inch (20 cm) non-stick skillet with cooking spray. Heat skillet over medium heat. Pour in egg mixture. As eggs set around edge of skillet, with spatula, gently push cooked portions toward centre. Tilt and rotate skillet to allow uncooked egg to flow into empty spaces.
- Step 3
When eggs are almost set on surface but still look moist, spread cottage cheese evenly along middle of omelette. Spoon fruit salad over cottage cheese. Fold each side of omelette toward centre and over fruit salad.
- Step 4
Slide omelette onto plate. Sprinkle icing sugar over top, if desired.
