Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 pieces large eggs
- 0.25 pound ground beef
- 1 teaspoon taco seasoning (sugar-free)
- 0.25 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 teaspoon unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons diced tomato
- 1 tablespoon chopped green onion
- 1 tablespoon sour cream
- 0.25 whole avocado slices
- 1 pinch salt
- 1 pinch black pepper
Instructions
Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the ground beef and cook, breaking it apart with a spatula, for 4-5 minutes or until browned.
Mix in the taco seasoning and cook for 1 more minute. Remove from skillet and set aside.
In a small bowl, whisk the eggs with a pinch of salt and black pepper until frothy.
Wipe the skillet clean and add the butter. Heat over medium-low until melted and slightly foamy.
Pour the eggs into the skillet and cook undisturbed for 1-2 minutes, or until the edges begin to set.
Using a spatula, carefully lift the edges of the omelette and tilt the skillet to allow the uncooked egg to flow to the edges.
Once the omelette is mostly set but still slightly moist on top, sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese over one half of the omelette.
Add cooked taco-seasoned ground beef, diced tomato, and chopped green onion on top of the cheese layer.
Carefully fold the unfilled half of the omelette over the filling and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes to fully melt the cheese.
Slide the omelette onto a plate and garnish with sour cream, avocado slices, and additional green onion if desired.
Serve warm and enjoy your Low Carb Taco Omelette!
