Ingredients

  • 2 large free range eggs
  • 6 sweet cherry tomatoes, chopped
  • 1 small clove garlic, finely chopped
  • 1/4-1/2 red chilli, seeded, finely chopped
  • 1/4-1/2 Avocado
  • 1/2 cup (60g) watercress, roughly chopped
  • Squeeze fresh lemon juice
  • extra virgin olive oil
  • Sea salt and black pepper
  • 1 tsp pine nuts, toasted (optional)

Instructions

  • Panfry tomatoes with garlic and chilli in olive oil over low-medium heat until very soft. Transfer to a plate and roughly mash with a fork. Set aside. 
  • Whisk eggs and add additional olive oil to pan over medium heat. Pour in eggs, tilting pan to cover base, cook for 30 seconds. 
  • Arrange avocado slices on egg, season with salt and pepper. 
  • Spoon tomato crush over egg. 
  • Dress watercress in olive oil and lemon juice and sit on top of omelette. 
  • Cook egg until liking. 
  • Sprinkle with optional pine nuts. I like to serve this omelette 'open' to showcase the ingredients. 

Notes

Make It Personal:
  • To boost your protein intake add cooked and shredded chicken or salmon to your omelette.
  • A dollop of dairy free pesto is also a lovely addition.
Sensitive to FODMAPs?
  • Omit fresh garlic and use garlic infused olive oil. I recommend Cobram Estate Garlic Infused Olive Oil.
  • Stick to 1/4 avocado per serve.
