Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Step 1: In a medium bowl, whisk together 4 large eggs, 2 tbsp finely chopped fresh chives, 1 tbsp finely chopped fresh dill, 1/4 tsp sea salt, and 1/8 tsp black pepper until fully combined and slightly frothy.
  2. Step 2: Heat 1 tsp extra-virgin olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat until shimmering.
  3. Step 3: Pour the egg mixture into the skillet, then immediately sprinkle 2 tbsp finely chopped sun-dried tomatoes evenly over the top.
  4. Step 4: Cook gently for 2-3 minutes, using a silicone spatula to lift the edges and let uncooked egg flow underneath, until the omelet is mostly set but still slightly moist in the center.
  5. Step 5: Fold the omelet in half with the spatula, then cook for 30 seconds more until the center is fully set. Slide onto a plate and top with 1/2 sliced avocado.
  6. Step 6: Garnish with an additional sprinkle of fresh chives and dill before serving.

How do I store leftover Herb-Infused Breakfast Omelet with Sun-Dried Tomato?

Can I substitute ingredients in Herb-Infused Breakfast Omelet with Sun-Dried Tomato?
