An omelette is obviously naturally gluten-free providing that they don’t have any offending ingredients mixed in or worse yet, you get it from IHOP who happens to use pancake batter to make their eggs fluffy :( Sylvie of Gourmande in the Kitchen certainly has it right when she says that an omelette… “is a feel-good, casual food, the sort that makes you want to roll up your sleeves, get comfortable and dive in”.
She also correctly points out…
Eggs are good source of high quality protein, high in choline (which has been linked to a reduced level of inflammation in the body) and recent studies have shown that, contrary to previous belief, a moderate consumption of eggs does not have a negative impact on cholesterol.
I like the concept of omelettes; it’s feel-good, casual food, the sort that makes you want to roll up your sleeves, get comfortable and dive in. They remind me of lazy weekends and leisurely brunches.
There’s something wonderfully comforting and satisfying about a dish that’s equally tasty when made simply with eggs, or spilling over with cheese and other fillings. But omelettes aren’t just weekend breakfast food; they are a fast and filling choice for any meal and there are many reasons to love eggs…
