Another classic family favorite veganized: Chickpea Omelette!! Not only is this perfect for beginners in the kitchen, this recipe is also great for those that are beginners in their transition to a plant-based diet as these omelettes look, taste and even smell like a regular omelette -- minus the empty calories, the cholesterol and the cruelty!
This recipe was adapted from Forks Over Knives, tweaked to my preferred flavor profile. Much like your regular omelette, it can be as fancy or as simple as you want and is easy to customize to the liking of each family member. This quick and easy breakfast is delicious and nutrient-dense! It's the perfect addition to breakfast platters, sandwiches, burritos, and Crunchwraps!!! It's a great make-ahead meal and is perfect for packing to school or work.
