Bell peppers and onions are excellent low-potassium choices that add flavor, vitamins, and fiber without stressing the kidneys.
This omelet is designed for a renal diet because it uses only egg whites, which are high in protein but low in phosphorus compared to whole eggs. It also uses low-potassium vegetables and has a very restricted amount of salt to keep sodium levels in check.
This omelet contains approximately 120-140 calories, making it a light yet satisfying meal. Most calories come from the protein in the egg whites.
Cheese is generally high in sodium and phosphorus, so it's best to avoid it on a strict CKD diet. If your dietitian allows, a very small amount of low-sodium swiss cheese might be an option, but it's not included in this base recipe.
Omelets are best enjoyed fresh. Reheating can make the egg whites rubbery. However, you can chop the vegetables ahead of time and store them in the fridge to speed up the cooking process.
