If there is one thing that you need to know about me, then it is that I am a massive omelette fan!
Free-range, organic, whole eggs are delicious and packed with essential micronutrients. Not only do they promote a fat burning hormonal response in your body, but they leave you feeling full and control your junk food cravings too. Definitely one of my favorite fat burning foods!
Another really interesting point is that they are properly versatile, and oh so quick to prepare! One of my favorite combinations is an egg and tuna omelette (try it for yourself). But you can stick to the more traditional combos, like chicken and vegetables.
This recipe is slightly different from the Fat Burning Breakfast Omelette because I\'m going all veggie.
It is key to use whole eggs, and not just the whites. By doing so you\'ll be getting a balanced hit of amino acids, making the protein in the egg easier to break down and use in your body. This is not the case if you only go for egg whites.
Ingredients & Prep
In this particular recipe I\'ve used tomatoes, red pepper and white onion - all fresh and organic of course! But like I said before, you can pretty much be as versatile as you like with your ingredients.
I like to get the preparation done first, so chop up the veg and then prepare the omelette \'mix\'.
I use 3 whole eggs (free-range and organic as I\'ve already mentioned), a little raw milk (unpasteurized and unhomogenized) to your taste depending on how firm or runny you\'d like it, and season with pepper and a little rock salt.
Just a side note on salt. If you stay away from processed foods then your salt intake will be pretty low. A little salt is actually vital to maintaining good health, plus it adds flavor to your cooking. Go for sea salt or rock salt and remember to use sparingly.
Cooking Your Omelette
Now it is time to soften up your pepper and onion. So heat a little oil in a pan and toss them in. Your choice of cooking oil is very important. I always use extra virgin, organic cooking oil because it the most stable oil under heat (the fats do not become toxic when heated), and it is very good for you. Just make sure you stay clear of the hydrogenated vegetable oils won\'t you.
Once you\'ve softened up the pepper and onion as much as you\'d like it is time to throw in the chopped tomatoes and pour in the omelette mix. Cook on a low to medium heat to keep it from burning.
TIP: I like to move the pan around on the heat to make sure it cooks evenly. If you find that the bottom is cooking but the top is too runny you can always finish it off under the grill.
Once you have things cooked to your tastes all you need to do is turn it out onto your plate. Flat or folded, the choice is yours.
Customize To Your Personal Tastes
You can do just about anything you like with your omelette; add chilli powder, a little cooked chicken, some leafy greens... Go nuts! If it\'s large enough you can even cut it in 2 and eat in 2 stages!
Remember that an omelette is only a fat burning meal as long as you choose the right ingredients, serve with the right sides and cook with the best oil.
If your preference is cooking with vegetable oil and serving with fries and ketchup then your in for a fat storing meal rather than a fat burning one.
