Recipes – Week 2
Easy Omelet w/ Seasonal Fruit
• 2 eggs (or egg whites)
• 1 tablespoon water
• Pinch salt
• Pinch fresh ground pepper
• 1 teaspoon pastured butter (or coconut oil)
• 1 serving seasonal fruit of choice
Lightly whisk the eggs, water, salt and pepper together in a small bowl and set aside.
Heat the coconut oil in a small sauté or omelet pan (7-8-inches best) over medium high heat, swirling to coat the pan for about 1 minute or until butter is melted and foam subsides (before butter browns) and distributed evenly across the bottom and side surfaces of the pan.
When the pan is well coated and hot, pour the eggs into the pan and do not disturb for about 30 seconds.
When eggs are bubbling and the bottom surface has solidified, gently lift one half of the omelet and fold it over the other side.
Let it cook for another 20 seconds or until desired done-ness and slide out on to your plate. If you prefer your eggs to be well cooked, you may flip the omelet over and cook for another 10-20 seconds before plating.
Serve omelet with seasonal fruit.
Yield: 1 serving
