I just made an omelet for me and my boyfriend. So today I want to share a few omelet recipes that I like!
It is great to start the day with some protein, it helps to keep the blood sugar even in the day. I think eggs are good for me..
This one I made yesterday evening, and my boyfriend told me I always make such good food ;)
Carrot & Pea Omelet (for 2 or 1 very hungry)
Failed flip :D |
4 Eggs, lightly beaten
1 Onion, sliced in rings
1 Carrot, diced and pre-cooked
1 handful frozen Peas
1 tsp Coconut oil
½ tsp Paprika powder
Salt & Pepper
Heat up a pan with coconut oil on medium heat, fry the onion in paprika until softish. Then add carrot, peas, salt and pepper and stir fry for a few minutes. Lastly add the eggs and let it fry on medium-low heat until you can flip it, and let the other side get some color.
I usually divide the omelet in halves before flipping it, because otherwise I just make a mess of it..
Yum yum! I also like to get some fish in there sometimes, and sardines are great since they're rich in omega-3 and small which means easy to cook, and less toxins.
Sardine Omelet (for 2)
6 Eggs, lightly beaten
1 can Sardines, drained
1 Onion, sliced in rings
1 Carrot, diced and pre-cooked
1 tbsp fresh Dill, chopped
1 tsp Butter
Splash of Lemon juice (opt)
Salt & Pepper
Heat up a pan with butter, fry the onion for a while. Add the sardines which you mash into smaller bits, carrot, dill, lemon, salt and pepper, and stir fry a little while. Lastly add the eggs, and let it fry on medium-low heat until you can flip it, and let the other side get some color.
Oh and this next one was mighty good as well! :)
Italian Herb Omelet (for 1)
3 Eggs, lightly beaten
3 Sun-dried Tomatoes, sliced
1 Handful of Baby leaf Spinach
1 Onion, sliced
2 Cloves Garlic, chopped
1 tbsp Tomato paste
Italian herbs, fresh or dried = Basil/Thyme/Oregano/Marjoram
Some Paprika
Salt & Pepper
Butter
Heat up a pan with butter, fry the onion and garlic in paprika for a while. Add the spinach, sun-dried tomatoes, tomato paste, herbs, salt and pepper, and fry until the spinach is softer. Lastly add the eggs, and let it fry on medium-low heat until you can flip it, and let the other side get some color. ;)
I really like food-blogging and sharing recipes and even though this blog is about skin care, I think it fits, kind of, since what we eat has such a big importance for how our skin looks!
