Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- 1 tablespoon coconut milk
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil
- 100 grams cooked ham
- 1 medium avocado
- 2 tablespoons nutritional yeast
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Crack the eggs into a mixing bowl, add the coconut milk, and whisk together until well combined. Season the mixture with salt and black pepper.
Dice the cooked ham into small cubes. Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop out the flesh. Slice the avocado thinly.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the coconut oil. Swirl the oil in the pan to ensure it coats the bottom evenly.
Pour the egg mixture into the skillet, tilting it slightly to spread the eggs evenly. Cook for about 2-3 minutes or until the bottom starts to set, but the top remains slightly runny.
Sprinkle the diced ham and nutritional yeast evenly over one half of the omelette. Carefully place the avocado slices over the same half.
Using a spatula, gently fold the other half of the omelette over the filled side. Cook for another minute or until the eggs are fully set.
Slide the omelette onto a serving plate and garnish with chopped chives and parsley. Serve immediately.
