Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons coconut milk
- 3 slices bacon
- 0.5 medium green bell pepper
- 0.5 medium red bell pepper
- 0.5 small yellow onion
- 1 cup fresh spinach
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon cooking fat (such as ghee or coconut oil)
Instructions
Begin by chopping the bacon into small pieces and set aside.
Dice the green and red bell peppers and the yellow onion, then set aside.
In a medium-sized frying pan, heat the cooking fat over medium heat.
Add the chopped bacon to the pan and cook until browned and crispy, stirring occasionally, about 5-7 minutes.
Once the bacon is cooked, remove it from the pan and place it on a paper towel to drain excess fat.
In the same pan with the bacon drippings, add the diced bell peppers and onion. Sauté for about 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are tender.
Add the fresh spinach to the vegetables and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until the spinach is wilted. Remove the vegetable mixture from the pan and set aside.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, coconut milk, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper until well combined and slightly frothy.
Pour the egg mixture into the same frying pan, keeping the heat on medium. Let it cook undisturbed for about 1-2 minutes until the edges start to set.
Sprinkle the cooked vegetable mixture and bacon bits evenly over one half of the omelette.
Using a spatula, carefully fold the other half of the omelette over the filling. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until the eggs are fully set.
Slide the omelette onto a plate and serve warm. Enjoy your Paleo Denver Omelette!
