Sodium: All of our recipes are low in sodium because it is hard on kidneys and raises blood pressure. Most people should limit sodium to 1,500 milligrams per day.

Potassium: If you are on hemodialysis, limit potassium too, to 2,000 milligrams per day. If you are on peritoneal dialysis or short daily dialysis, limit potassium to 3,500 milligrams per day.

Phosphorus: If you are on dialysis, limit phosphorus to about 1,000 milligrams per day.

Protein: If you are not on dialysis but have kidney disease, you might benefit from a diet lower in protein. Check with a kidney doctor or dietitian for guidelines.

Ingredients

Based on 1 serving per recipe.

2 eggs
2 tablespoons water
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1/2 cup filling (vegetables, meat, seafood)
2 tablespoons cheese, grated

Preparation

Beat together eggs and water.
Prepare your fillings.
In a 10-inch omelet pan or fry pan, heat butter and pour in egg mixture.
Carefully push cooked portions at edges toward center so uncooked portions can reach the hot pan. Tilt pan and move as necessary. Continue until eggs are set and will not flow.
Fill the omelet with 1/2 cup of filling and cheese.
With the spatula, fold omelet in half.
Serve with a dollop of sour cream, 60-Second Salsa (page 14), or Quick Pesto (page 29).

Leftover beef, chicken, or salmon, Fresh ground pork, Mushrooms, Asparagus, Spinach, Tomatoes, green and red bell peppers, black beans, fresh parsley or basil
