- 1 teaspoon extra virgin olive oil
- 1 red or green bell pepper spiralized (using Blade A), noodles trimmed
- ½ small white or yellow onion spiralized (using Blade A), noodles trimmed
- ¼ teaspoon dried thyme
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 eggs beaten
- 1/3 cup diced tomatoes such as Roma
- 1/4 avocado pitted, peeled, and sliced
- Green salad
- Salsa
Sauté the vegetables: Heat 1 teaspoon of extra virgin olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the spiralized bell pepper and onion to the skillet, season with dried thyme, salt, and pepper. Sauté for 3-4 minutes, until the vegetables are tender but still have a slight crunch.
Cook the omelette: Pour the beaten eggs evenly over the sautéed vegetables in the skillet. Allow the eggs to cook undisturbed for about 2-3 minutes, or until they begin to set around the edges.
Add the tomatoes: Sprinkle the diced tomatoes evenly over the eggs and continue to cook for another 1-2 minutes, or until the omelette is set but still slightly soft in the middle.
Fold and serve: Once the omelette is fully cooked, carefully fold it in half and slide it onto a plate. Serve with sliced avocado on the side and a green salad for added freshness.
Garnish and enjoy: Top with your favorite salsa for a bit of extra flavor and enjoy this wholesome, colorful dish!
