Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 large eggs
- 100 grams ground beef (grass-fed)
- 0.25 cup, finely chopped onion
- 0.25 cup, finely chopped bell pepper
- 1 clove, minced garlic
- 1 teaspoon taco seasoning (Paleo-compliant)
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil
- 0.5 sliced avocado
- 1 tablespoon, chopped (optional) cilantro
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
In a small bowl, crack the eggs and whisk them together with a pinch of salt and black pepper. Set aside.
Heat a medium skillet over medium heat and add half the coconut oil.
Once the oil is hot, add the ground beef and cook it until browned, breaking it up with a spatula. This should take about 5-7 minutes.
Add the onion, bell pepper, and garlic to the skillet with the ground beef. Cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are softened.
Sprinkle the taco seasoning over the ground beef and vegetable mixture. Stir to evenly combine. Transfer the mixture to a bowl and set aside.
Wipe the skillet clean, return it to medium heat, and add the remaining coconut oil.
Pour the whisked eggs into the skillet, tilting the pan to spread the eggs into an even layer. Let it cook undisturbed for 1-2 minutes until the edges are set.
Spoon the ground beef mixture onto one half of the cooked eggs in the skillet.
Gently fold the other half of the omelet over the filling using a spatula. Let it cook for another 1-2 minutes to warm the filling.
Carefully slide the omelet onto a plate and top with sliced avocado and chopped cilantro (if using). Serve immediately and enjoy your Paleo Taco Omelet!
