FOR BREAD OMELETTE
- 1 tsp avocado oil or any highheat oil
- 2 slices 100% whole-wheat bread
- 2 tbsp chopped red onions divided

- 1-2 chopped green chilies

Whip Eggs. Add 1 egg and 1 egg white to a small bowl with cumin powder, red chili powder, garam masala, and salt.
Cook Bread Omelette. Heat an Indian tawa on low-medium heat. You can also use a castiron or nonstick pan. Once the pan is hot, add oil. Carefully pour the eggs and swirl the pan around so the eggs spread out. Add 2 slices of whole wheat bread coating the bread with eggs. Then flip the bread to the other side.
Add Veggies & Cheese. Top with 1 tbsp red onion, all the tomatoes, 1 tbsp cilantro, and all the green chilies. Sprinkle some chat masala on top. Then top with the remaining 1 tbsp red onion and 1 tbsp cilantro. Then top with a slice of Colby Jack cheese. You may use any cheese you love that melts well. See the Ingredients section above for substitutions.
Fold & Brown Sandwich. Fold the sides of the omelet inward so it's tucked in. Then flip one side of the bread over the other. Cook the sandwich on both sides until browned. You'll notice the cheese is melting. Turn off the stove once the sandwich is browned and the cheese melts. Slice in half and enjoy hot!
