Warming omelette

Here's what just went into the best omelette I've ever made:

- 2 yolks
- 4 egg whites
- Cherry tomatoes
- Red onion
- Garlic (crushed & chopped)
- JalopeƱo

~1 tbsp rapeseed oil on the pan. Salt & pepper (& chillies) for extra flavour whilst cooking.

.,Preparation time around 3 minutes (chop & mix)
.,Cooking time around the same, maybe a minute or two longer (medium heat)

This is a super healthy meal made quickly... About 350 kcal and plenty of protein to keep you satisfied for longer.

Make sure to use a non-stick pan. Flip in half when the egg is nearly solid (it'll continue cooking whilst serving).

If I was feeling naughty I'd add a bit of blue cheese inside..... yummmmmmmm

And always (when possible) serve with a side salad.

Enjoy!

Fit as Hel members’ lunch

I took a few local Fit as Hel members out on a lunch last weekend. Jeannie and Khelda are also my 1-to-1 PT clients and Eniko does my gym classes every week. All of these ladies have come a long way on their fitness journeys since joining Fit as Hel -- and I can't thank them enough for their enthusiasm, activity and support in our online community.

I intentionally chose a buffet as our lunch destination - and cheekily wanted to see what kind of foods they'd go for. Personally, after eating two plates and a fruit dessert during the meal I didn't have to eat anything else for the rest of the day - just green tea and plenty of water. This way, when you listen to your body, you'll not get fat if your food choices are balanced also when eating out. I hoarded loads of protein (mainly chicken and eggs), some sushi, plenty of veg and drank water with the meal... And then had honey dew, apple, grapes and orange for dessert :-).

Eating in a buffet can be tricky and bad for the waistline. Fill your plate with different colours and drink water. Never eat at at a buffet late at night.
