Chickpea Flour 'Omelette'

     Even before becoming vegan I was never a big egg eater, in fact if I wanted some, I always wanted someone else to cook them because I couldn't stand the smell.  Finding an alternative to scrambled eggs was so easy, there is nothing I love more than a  tofu scramble! To me it tastes 100% better than any eggs I ever had in my life, and I happen to be with the man that makes the best scramble ever!
 
      Once in a while however I do miss the idea of an omelette so I was determined to search for something that would be similar. After many internet searches and an experiment this morning,  I found my 'omelette'!

You will need:

° 1/2 Cup Chickpea Flour

°  2 Tablespoons Nutritional Yeast

°  1 Tablespoon Chia Seeds

°  1/2 teaspoon Baking Powder

°  1/2 teaspoon Tumeric

°  Salt & Pepper to taste

°   2/3 Cup Water

°   Chopped onion

°   Any kind of veggies you'd like to put inside, chopped

°    Vegan cheese if wanted, I used a little bit of shredded cheddar from Daiya

1. First add all dry ingredients into a bowl and mix well.

2.  Next add water and onion, and let the mixture sit for about 10-15 minutes until thick. After that  if needed add more water by the Tablespoon until it resembles pancake batter.

3. Heat a non-stick frying pan, once the pan is hot turn the heat to low and pour half of the mixture into the pan spreading it out with a spoon.

4. Cover tightly with a lid and let cook for about 4 minutes or until the top looks like a pancake does when it's ready to flip.

5. At this point add cheese and veggies, then fold the omelette in half, put the lid back on tightly and cook for another 4 minutes.

After that its finished! The batter makes 2 good sized omelettes. Although I will admit I ate both of them this morning, mostly to conduct the full experiment ;)

There is no doubt this will become a breakfast favorite in my house! Plus the greatest part is that I found a way we can enjoy an "omelette" without any chickens being  harmed! :)
