Prep Time5 minutes
Cook Time10 minutes
Total Time15 minutes
Ingredients
3 eggs
1 can of tuna
1 small onion
1 tbsp olives, chopped
½ cup broccoli florets
½ green or red pepper
olives, pitted, chopped
1/2 Avocado
1 tomato, chopped
Arugula/Spinach – other greens
whole grain bread (optional, if not low-carb)
Instructions
Chop onion, broccoli (chop florets smaller), green peppers, olives and put in a mixing bowl. Add the eggs and the tuna.
Mix everything well together.
Cover the whole surface of a frying pan (middle-sized) with olive oil and add the omelette mixture. Spread it on the whole surface and cook for 3-4 minutes at medium-high to high heat.
Flip and cook also the other side. If you can flip without breaking it – you’re my hero! I can’t do it.
After 3-4 minutes turn off heat and you’re ready. Make sure the omelette is nicely browned, but not burned!
Serve with avocado, tomatoes and leafy greens like arugula. Optionally, if you don't need the recipe to be low-carb - serve on whole grain bread or use low-carb bread.
Notes
Optionally you can also meal prep this mixture by pouring it into muffin cups and baking it at medium-high heat. It's a delicious meal prep breakfast or lunch recipe
