NORM'S LOW CALORIE COOKBOOK
Ingredients
OMELET:
• 2 Tbsp hummus
FILLING:
TOPPINGS (optional):
• Fresh herbs
• Salsa
Instructions
2. Prep veggies, drain and dry tofu, and mince garlic. Set aside.

NORM'S LOW CALORIE COOKBOOK
5. To the still-warm skillet over medium heat, add a bit more olive oil and the
veggies. Season with salt and pepper and sauté to desired doneness. I like
to start with onions and tomatoes, then add mushrooms, and end with
spinach so each has proper time to cook. Set aside.
6. Remove skillet from heat and make sure it’s coated with enough oil so
the omelet doesn’t stick. Add back 1/4 of the veggies and spoon on the
omelet batter, spreading it gently with a spoon or rubber spatula, being
careful not to tear or cause gaps. The thinner and more evenly you can
spread it the better. So you may not end up using it all.
7. Cook over medium heat on the stove top for 5 minutes until the edges
start to dry. Then place in oven and bake until dry and deep golden brown
– 10-15 minutes. The longer it bakes the less soft/wet it will be, so if you
prefer a more “well done” omelet, cook closer to 15 or more.
8. Using an oven mitt, in the last few minutes of cooking carefully add
remaining veggies back on top of the omelet and cook another 1-2
minutes to warm through.
9. Carefully remove from oven with oven mitt and fold over gently with a
spatula. If it doesn’t want to fold, you can serve it as a frittata or scramble!
10. Serve with desired toppings. I went with salsa, vegan parmesan cheese,
cilantro and toast.

Instructions
1. Toast the bagel thin in the toaster. In a small bowl (I used disposable bowls
at the office), whisk the egg whites and add the spinach leaves then season
with kosher salt. Cook on HIGH in the microwave for 1 minute 30 seconds,
keeping an eye on the eggs so they don’t overflow.
2. Spread a wedge of the cheese on the toasted bagel thin and add slices of
tomato. Spoon the cooked egg out of the bowl in a single patty and place
on top of the cheese and tomato, and top with avocado. Season with more
salt and hot sauce if desired.

Healthy breakfast burritos stuffed with sweet potatoes, black beans, eggs and
avocado. You're going to love this protein-packed breakfast that's freezer-friendly
and great for meal prep.
Ingredients
Instructions
1. Cook sweet potatoes: Pierce sweet potatoes with fork a few times. Place in
microwave and microwave on high for 4-6 minutes or until cooked
though. This may take up to 10 minutes depending on how thick your
sweet potatoes are. Alternatively you can roast them in the oven at 375
degrees for 45 minutes or until fork tender. Once sweet potatoes are
cooked, remove the skins and place potatoes in a medium bowl. Mash
with a fork; set aside.

NORM'S LOW CALORIE COOKBOOK
2. In a separate large bowl, add black beans, cumin, chili powder and red
pepper flakes, if desired. Stir to combine then set aside.
3. In a separate medium bowl, beat eggs (or egg whites) together. Spray a
skillet with nonstick cooking spray and place over medium-low heat. Add
in eggs and cook. Fold every few minutes to get fluffy eggs. Once cooked,
remove from heat.
4. To assemble burritos, make sure you have slightly warm tortillas; it makes
them easier to roll. You can warm them up for 10-20 seconds in the
microwave before assembling. Lay out warm tortillas and evenly distribute
and spread mashed sweet potato on each as demonstrated in the video.
Evenly distribute scrambled eggs, diced avocado, black beans, and
shredded cheese on each tortilla. Next drizzle about tablespoon of
enchilada sauce in each. Season with salt and pepper, if desired. Tuck ends
in, then roll up burritos.
5. To warm up: Place on baking sheet in oven at 300 degrees for 5-10 minutes
or simply microwave them for a minute or two. Serve with sour cream,
greek yogurt, salsa, or hot sauce. Makes 6 burritos. Freezer instructions are
in the notes!
Recipe Notes
Nutritional information is based on using whole wheat tortillas that were 120
calories each. Gluten free tortillas aren't that flexible, so I wouldn't suggest using
them.
These burritos are freezer-friendly. Simply wrap in plastic wrap, then in foil and
place in freezer. To reheat, remove foil and plastic wrap and microwave until
warmed, about 2-3 minutes.

Strawberry season is almost upon us! To get in gear for these sweet summer
berries, I created this simple, yet wonderfully delicious strawberry shortcake
oatmeal! This overnight oatmeal is so easy to make, and it lives up to it's name! It
honestly tastes like you're having dessert for breakfast! Enjoy
Ingredients
• 3/4 cup Almond milk
• 1/2 cup Greek yogurt
• 1 1/2 cup Strawberries
• 1 cup Old fashioned oats
• 1/4 cup Protein powder
• 2 tbs Sweetener of choice
• 1/4 tsp Salt
Directions
The estimated total time to make this
recipe is 5-10 Minutes
Place 1 cup sliced strawberries in a medium bowl (or Tupperware) and smash
them with a fork until they are mashed (juice will also form, which is what you
want). Add the rest of the sliced strawberries to the bowl along with the rest of
the ingredients. Stir well to combine. Divide between 2 small bowls, mugs, or
mason jars. Cover and refrigerate overnight (or for at least an hour (or more) so
the oats soften and absorb the liquid). Enjoy cold, or microwave for 30-60
seconds to enjoy warm!

Ingredients
• 18 oz | 500 g reduced fat cream
cheese , at room temperature (80%
less fat)
• 2/3 cup non-fat plain Greek yogurt
• 1/2 cup natural granulated
sweetener (or caster sugar)
• 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
• 2 large eggs
• 1 cup fresh raspberries (not frozen),
divided
• 1/3 cup mini chocolate chips of choice (I use Lilly's Premium Dark
Chocolate Chips)
• 1/4 cup melted chocolate of choice (optional) to serve
Directions
1. Preheat oven to 280°F | 140°C. Pour boiling water halfway up the sides of a
large, deep baking dish and arrange dish on the lowest rack in the oven
(this helps keep the moisture in the oven and prevent the cheesecake from
developing deep cracks and drying out). Grease and line an 8-inch round
springform cake tin. Set aside.
2. Combine the cream cheese, yogurt and sweetener (or sugar) in a bowl.
Beat on low speed until smooth and combined. Fold the cocoa powder
through until incorporated into the cream cheese mixture. Add in the eggs
and beat again until smooth, for about 1 minute.
81

3. Add 3/4 cup of the raspberries and one third of the chocolate chips, and
gently fold them through.
4. Pour into prepared cake tin; top with the remaining chocolate chips and
bake for 40-50 minutes on the middle rack in your oven, until just set in
the centre (it will still have a little wobble in the centre). Turn oven off and
leave the cheesecake inside, with the oven door slightly ajar, to cool slowly
for about 1 hour.
5. Once cooled, place on a wire rack to cool completely before covering and
placing in the refrigerator to chill for 5-6 hours or overnight.
6. When ready to serve, top with the remaining fresh raspberries and drizzle
with melted chocolate (optional).
