Ingredients
- 1 cup chickpea flour
- 1 cup water
- 1 tablespoon nutritional yeast
- 1/2 teaspoon turmeric powder
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1/2 cup diced bell peppers
- 1/4 cup chopped onions
- 1/4 cup chopped tomatoes
- 1/4 cup chopped spinach

Instructions
- Prepare the batter by whisking together chickpea flour, water, nutritional yeast, turmeric, garlic powder, cayenne pepper, salt, and pepper in a mixing bowl until smooth.
- Heat olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
- Sauté the bell peppers, onions, tomatoes, spinach, and jalapeño (if using) for about 3-4 minutes until they are slightly softened.
- Pour half of the chickpea batter over the sautéed vegetables, spreading it evenly to form an omelette shape.
- Cook for about 5-7 minutes, or until the edges start to lift and the bottom is golden brown.
- Flip the omelette carefully and cook for another 2-3 minutes on the other side.
- Repeat the process with the remaining batter and vegetables to make the second omelette.
- Serve hot, garnished with fresh herbs or avocado slices if desired.
