Tuna Omelette Recipe Low Carb And High Protein

TUNA AND CHEESE OMELET

Steps:

• In a small mixing bowl, break eggs and mix with a whisk. Set aside.
• Prepare the tuna salad in a separate mixing bowl by mixing the small can of tuna with the mayonnaise. Set aside.
• Shred the cheddar cheese and set aside.
• Spray a cold 10" stainless steel frying pan with non-stick vegetable cooking spray and then preheat for 4 minutes on medium heat. Test how hot the pan is by sprinkling a few drops of water on it. You should have a good sizzle, but not too hot.
• In a separate small mixing bowl, whisk two of the eggs together.
• Pour the whisked eggs into the pan and let them cook until they are almost set up. The eggs should slide easily within the pan.
• Sprinkle the eggs with 1 Tablespoon Parmesan cheese, salt, and pepper. Add in a spoon or two of the tuna and half of the shredded cheddar cheese.
• Slide the cooked egg out onto a plate. Place in microwave for 30 seconds to melt the cheese, then fold over in half with a pancake turner.
• Repeat the process for the second omelet.

TUNA OMELETTE - LOW CARB, KETO, GF

Steps:

• Add a bit of oil in a small frying pan and sauté the red and green bell peppers on medium heat until they start to soften, about 3 minutes. Remove from heat.
• In a medium bowl, mix the bell peppers, tuna and cream cheese together. Set aside.
• In a separate medium bowl, beat the eggs together.
• Heat a bit of oil in an 8-inch (20-cm) nonstick frying pan over medium-high heat until hot. Gently swirl the oil around so it coats the pan. Pour in half the eggs. Wait about 30 seconds, until the eggs on the bottom of the pan start to set. Using a spatula, gently and very lightly disturb the cooked egg, creating small gaps where you can see the pan, for uncooked egg to flow into. Do this about 4 times in various areas of the omelette, then allow the eggs to cook until you have a thin layer of liquid egg on top, about 30 seconds.
• Spoon on half the tuna mixture on half the egg. Gently lift one edge of the egg and fold it across and over, so you create a semi-circle. Gently hold the omelette closed with the spatula, until the edges of the omelette cook together and seals it shut. You may push the omelette against the edge of the pan so the edges cook together.Cook for another minute or so. Flip the entire omelette over to cook for another minute.
• Gently transfer the finished omelette to a plate and garnish with chives, sea salt and pepper.
• Repeat with remaining ingredients to make a second omelette.
• Enjoy.
