And, I have successfully eaten breakfast now for three days in a row. I'm totally not going to lie, I feel fantastic. How about a Black Bean Omelet for breakfast this morning?

Day 3 - Black Bean Omelet

This delicious breakfast staple gets kicked up a notch with a black bean filling and fresh salsa on top.

Yields one serving

What you’ll need:

1/2 cup of cage free 100% egg white liquid

1/8 teaspoon of extra virgin olive oil

A pinch of sea salt and black pepper

Directions: In a nonstick 8-inch skillet, heat the oil over medium heat. Pour the egg whites into a small bowl and sprinkle in the salt and pepper. Whisk for 10 seconds, add in the egg mixture to the skillet to cover the bottom and cook the eggs for two minutes. Using a rubber spatula, flip the egg over and cook for another two minutes. Transfer to a plate and leave the omelet open.
