Eggs 101
Do you love having eggs for breakfast? So do we! But, sometimes, a sunny-side-up egg can feel a little repetitive. When you need to switch things up, this effortless and microwave-friendly Easy Cheese Rice Omelette is exactly what you need! With the addition of Minute Rice®, you’ll start your day with a filling and energizing meal that will get you going. The rice adds loads of whole-grain goodness and an extra layer of texture to the classic omelette. Combined with melty Cheddar cheese, this dish has all the flavour and texture you crave.
You can heat the rice over the stove instead of in the microwave. Sauté the rice for a few minutes in a saucepan along with a tablespoon of water or chicken broth, occasionally stirring to break up any clumps.
To switch up the flavour, add other toppings to the rice and egg mixture, or sub in another rice variety for the brown rice.
Here are a few other ways you can prepare your eggs:
Steamed
Over Easy
Scrambled
Baked
Sunny Side Up
Soft-Boiled

Possible Ingredients
One of the best things about an omelette is that it is versatile and can add just about anything. Need to use up some leftover veggies? Onions, peppers and mushrooms make a great addition to any omelette. Try packing on the cheddar cheese. Want some meat options? Why not try ham, bacon or sausage? Wanting a super hearty meal? Try packing on the potatoes and then add a massive dollop of whipped cream on top.
