Make A Fat Burning Omelette
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 one of my favorite fat burning foods; delicious, filling, nutritional powerhouses and promote a fat burning hormonal response.
Not to mention the fact that they are extremely versatile, they go well with just about anything (even Tuna, I’m not kidding, just try it) and quick and easy to prepare.
With this fat burning recipe I’m going all veggie. But my Fat Burning Breakfast Omelette included meat.
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 & Preparation
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.
Food preparation is always the boring bit, so I get this done first. I’ll always chop the veg and put the omelette mix together before I start cooking.
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 little note on salt. I try to stay clear of as many processed foods as I can, so my salt intake is pretty low. Adding rock or sea salt to your meals is completely safe and healthy as long as you use it sparingly. Oh, and the taste is a big positive too.
Cooking
Next, heat a little oil in a pan (I use organic, extra virgin coconut oil because it is amazingly healthy and the fats are very stable under high heat – i.e. they don’t turn into anything nasty!) and cook off the onions and peppers just to soften them up.
Once your vegetable have softened up you can go ahead and pour in the omelette mix and chopped tomatoes. I like to cook on a medium to low heat so the underside doesn’t burn.
Cooking tip: Try moving the pan around on the heat to make sure you get a more even cook. I’ll often cook it about half way and then put it under the grill to finish off and brown the top.
Turn it out onto a plate et voila! You’re done.
Customize To Your Personal Tastes
There are just so many possibilities with an omelette that they never need to get boring. Cooked chicken, spices, as many vegetables as you can think of; they all go so well in this type of meal.
But let us not forget that the ingredients you use, the side garnish and the cooking oil used will determine whether this meal is a healthy and fat burning one.
If you fry it in an ocean of refined vegetable oil and serve with a large portion of chips, then your looking at a stomach bulging meal, rather than a slimming one.
