Start the Day Right With a Veggie Omelet
You shouldn’t ignore your veggies at breakfast. Get started on your goal to eat the recommended two to three cups of veggies by incorporating them in an omelet or scrambled eggs — a high-protein option for the morning.
Tomatoes, mushrooms, broccoli and peppers are just a few choices Hy-Vee Dietitian Kristin Sousek recommends to pep up your morning routine.
