Happy Meatless Monday! I hope you all enjoyed the long holiday weekend. My company gave us any extra long weekend, and I have today off as well. Woohoo!
I’m starting a 12-week workout and nutrition program this week (more on that to come), so I’m starting to track my macros diligently and stick to strength and cardio based workout plan.
One thing I’ll definitely have to work into my diet every now and then is this amazing Sundried Tomato & Kale Omelet!
I whipped this up one night when I was low on groceries and just wanted something quick, and the result was AMAZING! I’ve made it multiple times over the past month. Who doesn’t love breakfast for dinner?
It’s savory, cheesy, and the sundried tomatoes add the perfect amount of sweetness.
Plus, all the protein makes it super filling! Here are the macros if you’re interested:
calories: 370, fat: 19.5, carb: 11.5, protein: 31.5, fiber: 1.75, sugar: 5

- 2 whole eggs
- 6 Tbsp liquid egg whites (or 2 egg whites)
- 1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese (I use Kraft shredded)
- 1/2 cup chopped kale
- 1/4 cup sundried tomatoes (dice after measuring)
- salt + pepper to taste
- Spray a large non-stick skillet with non-stick spray and heat over medium heat.
- Whisk the egg and egg whites together. Mix in salt and pepper.
- Pour egg mixture into the pan and allow to cook for a minute or so.
- Top with cheese, kale and diced sundried tomatoes and allow to cook another minute or so.
- When edges are just starting to brown, use a spatula to fold the omelet in half. Press down to close.
- Remove to plate and enjoy!
- If you want an extra fluffy omelet, add a splash of milk.
- For a low-fat omelet, replace whole eggs with egg whites.
I eat a similar omelet all the time! I love putting avocado in it too! I need to get back on track eating better this week too!

haha that’s the slightly browned effect you get from leaving it on the stove a little too long – but I like it that way 🙂
Yum! My husband loves breakfast for dinner.

Delicious recipe!!
I love your “tomato and kale omelet” ideas. I have applied your recipe yesterday. Your ideas give me an excellent nutrition source for our breakfast. It’s very easy. All are okay except the color. I can’t make the exact color like you. I will try the next more. Thanks for the nice sharing

This looks really good! My mouth is watering! 🙂 Just a couple of questions….Do you have to use a cast iron skillet or can you fry up the vegetables in a regular skillet and then bake the frittata in the oven in a baking dish?
