In honor of National Egg Month, I wanted to share my favorite protein-filled quick breakfast with you: a 2 Minute Omelette in a Mug.
Seriously, this Omelette in a mug recipe really only takes 2 to 3 minutes to put together, and the best part is that it is very flexible based on what you have in your fridge.
Our family goes through so many eggs in a week, we are now buying them by the 5 dozen cases from the warehouse store. We just love ’em. They’re inexpensive and are great for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and especially snacks. (We go through hard-boiled eggs by the dozen. and my latest trick has been to hard-cook 18 or so at a time in my pressure cooker!)
I stumbled across this weight loss study that looked at eggs versus carbs for breakfast. After reading the article, I’ve been trying to kick my morning cereal habit and eat more eggs. (Basically, the study says that after 8 weeks of eating eggs vs bagels, the egg-eating diet group had 61% greater reduction in BMI, 65% more weight loss, 34% greater reduction in waist circumference and 16% greater reduction in body fat.)

Rating 5 stars for quick recipes for singles as i haven’t made yet. Question is do I need to add salsa for moisture? Not a salsa fan. Thank you,

You don’t. You can add a splash of milk.
These looks great!! how long would they last in the fridge for? I Was thinking on making many to have them ready for breakfast
3 to 4 days
I am taking care of my mom…. this will be such a simple breakfast….thank you, it can be changed up a bit for variety. You just made my mornings easier!!!! Yum
This is going to make my life so much easier. Thanks a bunch!
I just made this omelette. I used one egg, the cheese and a precooked sausage link that I sliced. Eggcellent! I would coat the mug with melted butter. I didn’t care for the cooking spray.
what you mean with salsa? what kind of salsa?
Whatever kind of salsa you prefer…
My current fave is the Herdez Mild Salsa. (http://amzn.to/1OcPWMW) Good flavor without any spiciness and no added sugar.
any kind… salsa is salsa
What??? Omelette in a mug?? A must try! Thanks for sharing!
My six-year-old is an egg FANATIC…he's going to love it when I show him how he can cook his own eggs in the microwave!
