Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons coconut milk (unsweetened, full-fat)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil (or avocado oil)
- 0.5 cup (diced) onion
- 0.5 cup (diced) green bell pepper
- 0.5 cup (diced) red bell pepper
- 0.5 cup (diced) ham (sugar-free, nitrate-free)
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon (chopped) fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Crack the eggs into a mixing bowl and whisk together with the coconut milk until the mixture is fully combined.
Heat the olive oil in a medium non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Add the diced onion, green bell pepper, and red bell pepper to the skillet. Sauté for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are tender and slightly softened.
Add the diced ham to the skillet and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes to warm it through.
Season the sautéed vegetables and ham with salt and black pepper, stirring to combine.
Evenly spread out the vegetable and ham mixture in the skillet and pour the egg mixture over the top, tilting the pan if needed to ensure the eggs coat the bottom evenly.
Reduce the heat to low and let the egg mixture cook undisturbed for 3-4 minutes, until the bottom is set and the edges begin to lift away from the pan.
Using a spatula, carefully fold the omelette in half and continue to cook for another 1-2 minutes, or until the eggs are fully cooked through.
Transfer the omelette to a plate and garnish with fresh parsley, if desired. Serve immediately and enjoy!
