The Egg White Omelette with Smoked Salmon is a textbook post-workout meal. Six egg whites provide around 21 grams of pure protein with virtually zero fat, while smoked salmon adds another 15 grams of protein along with omega-3 fatty acids โ€” essential for reducing exercise-induced inflammation and supporting muscle recovery. The cream cheese and capers bring richness and flavour without significantly adding calories. This omelette is light enough to eat immediately after intense training when heavy meals can feel uncomfortable, yet substantial enough to genuinely fuel recovery.

๐Ÿ’ก Chef's Tip

Do not overcook the egg whites โ€” they become rubbery quickly. Remove from heat when the top is just barely set and still slightly glossy.
