What do you think people around the world eat for breakfast? I mean the most common stuff? Cereals, toast, eggs are few things which come to my mind immediately. These are universally popular, of course it helps that they are all super simple to make with minimal prep work. I do eat cereals and toasts on a regular basis especially on days when I get up late and have no time to prepare parathas or other Indian breakfast. But if there’s one thing I do not make often, it has to be eggs. Husband is not too fond of eggs, I mean he is okay with them in baked goods, he would even eat hard boiled eggs but omelettes? He hates the smell so I make them only when I am alone at home and have to make something quick for breakfast or lunch.
Omelettes are easy to make, healthy and also very versatile. Since I love my veggies, I like my omelettes loaded with all veggies possible. Spinach, onions, mushrooms, you name it and I would want it in my omelette. The latest veggie that I added to my omelette is the wonderful broccoli in this broccoli sriracha omelette.
