This recipe is a variation of the Denver omelette or the frittata, depending on your preferences. It differs from the Denver omelette in the fact that it does not contain ham, but rather a soy-based meat equivalent: ham substitute or soy pepperoni It differs from the frittata in that it is not a fried omelette. Since frying may contribute to elevating the saturated fat content of an omelette, a microwave oven was used. The result is a fluffy, light-tasting and delicious omelette. Baking could also have been used. The egg product in the analysed recipe was "EggCreations" TM. One could also use egg whites instead, but the look of your Denver-like omelette or frittata will be somewhat odd. Depending on your country of residence, brand names will vary. You may have to scan the shelves at your supermarket for a few seconds. http://www.heartmonitron.com/hm_meddigest_journals_on_nutrition-_heart_and_diabetes-_cholesterol_and_healthy_weight_045.htm Sat, 31 Jul 2010 18:00:54 GMT heartMonitron NGBeditor http://www.heartmonitron.com/hm_meddigest_journals_on_nutrition-_heart_and_diabetes-_cholesterol_and_healthy_weight_045.htm#7   Qty   Measure Unit       Ingredient                                                       Method                         Alternative                      1 2 Whole Green Onions Finely Chopped     2 1/4 Cup Green Pepper  Finely Chopped      3 1/4 Cup  Carrots Finely Chopped  Asparagus  4 1/2 Cup  Broccoli Finely Chopped Frozen Mix of Vegetables for the above lines   5 2 Slices Fat-free Cheese Kraft fat-free mozzarella slices  Shredded fat-free cheese  6 1/2 Tablespoon Skim Dry Milk Powder As if Baking    7 1 Teaspoon  hM oil blend (50% Olive, 50% Canola) Spray   50% Canola oil, 50% Olive oil  8  1/8 Teaspoon  No-SaltTM     Check with your MD  9  1/8 Teaspoon  Coarse ground pepper    To Taste  10  1/8 Teaspoon  Oregano flakes    Fresh leaves  11  1/8 Teaspoon Dry Garlic Flakes     12  1/4 Cup  Flour, Whole wheat or from whole grains  As if Baking  Add just a little water if too thick  13  1/4 Teaspoon  Baking Powder, Low Sodium      14  500 Grams  Egg Creations TM, or egg whites  Store bought  Cholesterol-free egg products  15  50 Grams  Soy-based pizza pepperoni in Denver-like versions Boca products in most stores Soy-based ham-like products   16           17           18           19           20          ]]> http://www.heartmonitron.com/hm_meddigest_journals_on_nutrition-_heart_and_diabetes-_cholesterol_and_healthy_weight_045.htm Sat, 31 Jul 2010 18:00:54 GMT heartMonitron NGBeditor http://www.heartmonitron.com/hm_meddigest_journals_on_nutrition-_heart_and_diabetes-_cholesterol_and_healthy_weight_045.htm#8 Total Calories : 148 KiloCalories http://www.heartmonitron.com/hm_meddigest_journals_on_nutrition-_heart_and_diabetes-_cholesterol_and_healthy_weight_045.htm Sat, 31 Jul 2010 18:00:54 GMT heartMonitron NGBeditor http://www.heartmonitron.com/hm_meddigest_journals_on_nutrition-_heart_and_diabetes-_cholesterol_and_healthy_weight_045.htm#9 % From fat % From carbohydrate % From protein http://www.heartmonitron.com/hm_meddigest_journals_on_nutrition-_heart_and_diabetes-_cholesterol_and_healthy_weight_045.htm Sat, 31 Jul 2010 18:00:54 GMT heartMonitron NGBeditor http://www.heartmonitron.com/hm_meddigest_journals_on_nutrition-_heart_and_diabetes-_cholesterol_and_healthy_weight_045.htm#10   9.8 % of Calories   32.3 % of Calories   57.9 % of Calories ]]> http://www.heartmonitron.com/hm_meddigest_journals_on_nutrition-_heart_and_diabetes-_cholesterol_and_healthy_weight_045.htm Sat, 31 Jul 2010 18:00:54 GMT heartMonitron NGBeditor http://www.heartmonitron.com/hm_meddigest_journals_on_nutrition-_heart_and_diabetes-_cholesterol_and_healthy_weight_045.htm#11 WARNING !

In this recipe, one assumes that the omelette will not be the only source of carbohydrates. You may probably have some toasts or some slices of whole wheat bread with the omelette. The fat content is somewhat higher than in the cardiac / heart health version. Preferably, the sources of carbohydrates that will be added to the meal should come from whole-grain sources, so as to provide for a lower glycemic index for the whole meal plan. http://www.heartmonitron.com/hm_meddigest_journals_on_nutrition-_heart_and_diabetes-_cholesterol_and_healthy_weight_045.htm Sat, 31 Jul 2010 18:00:54 GMT heartMonitron NGBeditor http://www.heartmonitron.com/hm_meddigest_journals_on_nutrition-_heart_and_diabetes-_cholesterol_and_healthy_weight_045.htm#14 Total Calories : 167 KiloCalories http://www.heartmonitron.com/hm_meddigest_journals_on_nutrition-_heart_and_diabetes-_cholesterol_and_healthy_weight_045.htm Sat, 31 Jul 2010 18:00:54 GMT heartMonitron NGBeditor http://www.heartmonitron.com/hm_meddigest_journals_on_nutrition-_heart_and_diabetes-_cholesterol_and_healthy_weight_045.htm#15 % From fat % From carbohydrate % From protein http://www.heartmonitron.com/hm_meddigest_journals_on_nutrition-_heart_and_diabetes-_cholesterol_and_healthy_weight_045.htm Sat, 31 Jul 2010 18:00:54 GMT heartMonitron NGBeditor http://www.heartmonitron.com/hm_meddigest_journals_on_nutrition-_heart_and_diabetes-_cholesterol_and_healthy_weight_045.htm#16  15.3 % of Calories   29.9 % of Calories   54.8 % of Calories ]]> http://www.heartmonitron.com/hm_meddigest_journals_on_nutrition-_heart_and_diabetes-_cholesterol_and_healthy_weight_045.htm Sat, 31 Jul 2010 18:00:54 GMT heartMonitron NGBeditor http://www.heartmonitron.com/hm_meddigest_journals_on_nutrition-_heart_and_diabetes-_cholesterol_and_healthy_weight_045.htm#17 Nutritional Values - Data Analysis for this Omelette Recipe http://www.heartmonitron.com/hm_meddigest_journals_on_nutrition-_heart_and_diabetes-_cholesterol_and_healthy_weight_045.htm Sat, 31 Jul 2010 18:00:54 GMT heartMonitron NGBeditor http://www.heartmonitron.com/hm_meddigest_journals_on_nutrition-_heart_and_diabetes-_cholesterol_and_healthy_weight_045.htm#18 The cardiac / heart health care version was used as a base.
