Crabby Omlete
An excellent breakfast recipe and easy to make! Great for low-carb diets. Courtesy of Shape.com.
Ingredients:
4 large eggs
2 tsp butter
4 oz (about ¾ cup) canned crab
¼ cup thinly sliced scallions
1/3 cup grated Swiss cheese
½ avocado, sliced
Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
Directions:
Crack eggs into bowl and whisk together. Melt 1 teaspoon butter in a nonstick pan over medium-high heat. Add half of the crab and scallions. Sauté for 2 to 3 minutes, until the crab is heated and the scallions are slightly softened. Pour in half of the eggs. As they cook, use a rubber spatula to gently lift up the edges of the eggs to allow uncooked portions to run underneath. When the egg mixture is dry on the outer edges but still slightly runny in the center (about 2 to 3 minutes), flip the omelet over with the spatula. Reduce heat to low and add half of the cheese. Cook for one minute. Remove the omelet from the pan and fold it in half onto a plate. Repeat above steps with remaining ingredients. Top each omelet with avocado slices and season with salt and pepper.
