How to make a simple omelette for weight loss using the Eat Shed Glow® method

Serves: 1 · Prep: 2 min · Cook: 5 min

Storage: Best fresh. Omelettes do not store well.

How to Make It

  1. Crack 2–4 eggs* into a bowl and whisk with a pinch of sea salt and black pepper.

  2. Heat a nonstick pan over medium heat and lightly coat with avocado oil spray (or 1 tsp olive oil or butter).

  3. Pour the eggs into the pan and let them set slightly around the edges without stirring.

  4. As the center begins to set but is still slightly soft, add fillings to one half of the omelette.

  5. Gently fold the omelette over the fillings using a spatula.

  6. Cook for another 1–2 minutes, until just set. Remove from heat immediately.

Notes

Omelettes are an easy way to build a complete, satisfying meal. Add-ins can be mixed and matched based on what you have on hand.

Easy additions include:

  • Sautéed mushrooms

  • Cherry tomatoes or diced tomatoes

  • Spinach or greens

  • Onion or scallions

  • Cheese (feta, goat cheese, mozzarella, or cheddar)

  • Fresh herbs

*For a higher-protein option, you can make an egg white omelette by using 8 oz liquid egg whites in place of whole eggs, or by combining 1–2 whole eggs with liquid egg whites. Cook the same way, and season generously for flavor.
