Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 large eggs
- 1 tablespoon heavy cream
- 4 ounces ground beef
- 1 teaspoon taco seasoning (sugar-free)
- 1 ounce cheddar cheese, shredded
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 0.5 medium avocado
- 2 tablespoons sour cream
- 1 teaspoon fresh cilantro, chopped (optional)
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
In a small skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until browned, about 5-7 minutes. Drain any excess grease and stir in the sugar-free taco seasoning. Set aside.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, salt, and pepper until fully combined and slightly frothy.
Heat the butter in a non-stick skillet over medium heat until melted and bubbly.
Pour the egg mixture into the skillet, tilting the pan slightly to ensure the eggs cover the entire surface evenly.
Cook the eggs undisturbed for 1-2 minutes, or until the bottom starts to set. Then, reduce the heat slightly and cover the skillet with a lid, allowing the top of the omelette to cook through without flipping, about 3 minutes.
Once the omelette is fully set but still tender, sprinkle half of the shredded cheddar cheese onto one side. Spoon the seasoned ground beef on top of the cheese, then sprinkle the remaining cheese over the beef.
Using a spatula, gently fold the other half of the omelette over the filling. Allow it to cook for an additional 1-2 minutes so the cheese becomes melted and gooey.
Carefully slide the omelette onto a plate. Top with sliced avocado, a dollop of sour cream, and optional chopped cilantro for garnish. Serve immediately.
