Mostly Egg White Turkey Omelet

Mostly Egg While OmeletEggs, eggs. Glorious eggs.

Boiled, poached, fried, scrambled, and in omelet form.

I’ll take all of the above.

I’m not a fan of runny eggs in any way, shape, or form. 

Sometimes I am a nice pet mom and give the girls (Tink and Casey) a treat.

I also try to keep my calories in check. From time to time I’ll whip some egg whites with one egg and give the girls each a yolk.  Don’t get me started on the cheese. I will gladly swap a few yolks for cheese 😉

For this particular omelet I made some of my homemade sausage, but instead of using pork I used ground turkey I had picked up on sale.  I made it into crumbles instead of patties or links.

With the premade turkey sausage, breakfast can be on the table in 15 – 30 minutes or less.

  1. I remember when I had pets that I used to feed them eggs. That made their coats so shiney. Your eggs look delish… healthy too.

    1. I tend to stick to pretty low carb, whole food when I eat because it helps with my PCOS and over all health issues. I just eat 1 egg because it keeps me full longer. If I am going for scrambled or omelets I give the extra yolks to the dogs but always keep one for the extra protein. I just can’t do egg beaters. Something in the makes my stomach hurt.

    1. I like them. But sometimes I don’t always need them. I love eggs and all their creaminess. I tend to take some out when I make omelets, that way the dogs can have a treat too.

  5. This sounds so good and healthy. Eggs are not always easy for me to eat but when I limit to mostly egg whites I can handle it better. I’m going to try this recipe.

    1. You are very welcome. I can highly suggest shopping the perimeter of the super market and staying away from the middle isles where all the prepackaged foods hide.
