Omlette In A Jar…..
Pans, shams! This recipe only requires one jar and cooks
in less than 2 minutes!
Ingredients
• 2 Tablespoons Milk ( use Silk Brand unsweetened Almond Milk to reduce fat and calories!)
• Handful of Spinach
• 2 tablespoons Shredded Cheese (Feta or Fresh Mozzarella are MUCH lower calorie choices!)
• 1-2 tablespoons Chopped LEAN Deli Ham or Deli Turkey
• 2 Eggs
• Salt
• Freshly Cracked Black Pepper
• Non-stick Cooking Spray

Add the
Milk, Spinach, Cheese and Meat to the jar.
• 2 Eggs- Crack those babies into the jar!
• Salt
• Freshly Cracked Black Pepper

Season with Salt and
Pepper then place the lid back on and shake vigorously for 20-30 seconds, until
the eggs are pale yellow.

Remove the lid and
microwave for 90 seconds.

Carefully remove from
the microwave and check for doneness. Return to the microwave for 15-30 seconds
to finish cooking as needed.
•
6
Remove from jar and
serve warm. This works in a regular oven
as well, if you have an oven proof container. I use a shallow non-stick skillet and finish in the oven- it is the same principal. (See comment below on using oven).
Just a fun way to make an omlette! I often make them with chopped green onions, feta cheese & fresh minced parsley.

What are the directions for the oven?
ReplyDeleteSorry for the delay! I answered this sooner, but I had trouble getting my comments to "stick". In the oven, use a small,non-stick pan. Jars are fine, however, it is unlikely you have one that is oven safe. Any pyrex will work- you may have some nice sizes in that to use. Or, cook on a medium heat in a small non-stick skillet with metal handles. When you can separate eggs from the edge with a spatula, place in hot oven to finish. The eggs will fluff up and take the exact shape of the pan- no turning needed. Restaurants do this with omelets, that is how they make them fluff. I do not fold them over, just finish in the oven and it pour out of the pan. With a good non-stick pan, it does not even need cooking spray.
