Chickpea Flour Omelet With Spinach and Kale

Omelets are a great go-to option for breakfast or even dinner because they're easy to make, they cook fast, and there are endless opportunities for toppings. Mixing chickpea flour together with flax, water, and a little bit of seasoning creates a batter you can use to make egg-free omelets. This recipe loads up on leafy greens, fresh tomatoes, and avocado, but try mixing up the filling with ingredients like mushrooms, sun-dried tomatoes, and peppers.

Preparation

1. Start by mixing the chickpea flour, and ground flax seeds together. Add the water, lemon juice, and tahini, then whisk to combine. Season to taste and let sit for about 5-10 to thicken.
2. Heat a frying pan to medium heat. Add the olive oil and the omelet mixture. Add the chopped spinach and kale leaves, diced avocado, cherry tomatoes, and spices you like. Let cook for 5-10 minutes.
