Tomato & Green Onion Omelet

For the past few omelet recipes that I made, each one turned out different. Based on what some awesome people suggested, I decided to add a bit of milk to the recipe to see if the texture of the omelet will change. To my surprise, the omelet turned out fluffier and more delicious! All I did was add 1 teaspoon of soy milk to it!!! Any who, I hope that you will enjoy it! :D
[Servings: 1]
Ingredients:
- 1 tsp. olive oil
- 1 egg
- 1 tsp. soy milk
- 1/4 cup tomato, cut into pieces

Healthy Asian Chicken Noodle Soup

Healthy Asian chicken noodle soup is really easy to make and it is very soothing during the cold winter season. Chicken breast is high in protein as well! Chicken breast is also lower in fat, compared to other parts of the chicken. For the chicken broth, I used the low-sodium version. 
(Note: I added more peas than usual because I like it).
 
[Servings: 2]
Ingredients:
- 2 cups low-sodium chicken broth
- 2 cups water
- 2 handful of broad rice noodles (you can use other types of noodles, too)

Red Rose & Sprinkle Cake Pops

Red red and sprinkle cake pops are super easy to make. The only downside to making cake pops is that they can be quite time-consuming. These are probably not something you should make if you are in a rush to a party. If you decide to make cake pops but you have a lot of chores to do, I recommend spreading out sections of the cake pop-making process (e.g. cool down time, dipping and adding sprinkles time, etc). This recipe is a lot lower in sugar and fat compared to the regular cake pop recipes out there. By baking the cake pop directly, you won't have to add more fat + sugar (e.g. frosting or buttercream) to the cake pops. The chocolate on the outside of the cake pop is already sweet enough. Even though cake pops are overrated, they are still fun to decorate and eat. I hope that you will enjoy them as much as I did. :]
[Servings: ~30]
Ingredients: 
- 2 & 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup sugar
- 1/2 tsp. baking power
- pinch of salt
- 3/4 cup butter, room temperature
- 2 egg whites
- 1 egg yolk
- 1/2 cup soy milk
- 2 tsp. vanilla
