  • Onion: 1/2 cup finely chopped (about 75 grams)
  • Tomatoes: 1/2 cup diced (approximately 90 grams)

  • Mustard: 1 tablespoon 15 mL
  • Salt: 1/2 teaspoon about 3 grams
  • Black pepper: 1/4 teaspoon about 1.5 grams
  • Olive oil: 2 tablespoons 30 mL

Instructions

HOW TO MAKE YOUR HIGH PROTEIN CHEESEBURGER OMELETTE:

  • Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
  • Toss in the finely chopped onions and sauté them until translucent.
  • Add the ground beef to the skillet. Season it with salt and pepper. Cook until it’s nicely browned and crumbly.
  • While the beef is cooking, crack the eggs into a bowl. Whisk them well.
  • Once the beef is cooked, reduce the heat. Pour the whisked eggs over the beef and onion mixture.
  • Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the omelette.
  • Let it cook on low heat for about 3-4 minutes or until the bottom sets.
  • Using a spatula, gently fold one half of the omelette over the other.
  • Cook for another 2 minutes, ensuring the cheese melts and the omelette is fully cooked but remains fluffy.
  • Slide your High Protein Cheeseburger Omelette onto a plate.

Notes

H2 PRO TIPS FOR THE PERFECT OMELETTE:
Always cook your omelette on low to medium heat. This keeps it tender and prevents overcooking.
Using a non-stick skillet can make the flipping process a lot smoother.
For an extra protein punch, consider adding a sprinkle of chia seeds or hemp seeds on top.
Don’t skip the mustard! It brings a tangy kick that complements the beef and cheese.
