Lunch for Today: Omelette

[Activity2004]

As promised, here's my picture of the omelette cooked with eggbeaters I had today for lunch. I had a small fruit salad on the side (30 carbs. total). It came out really well and lots of cheese to help keep everything together.

Hi Leah, this looks incredibly light and fluffy, cheese omelettes are the best... so I'm glad that you enjoyed it. 😊

[Activity2004 Administrator in reply to Hidden]

I did! The mushrooms also helped. Wish I could have an omelette more than on the weekends, but there isn't much time during the week.

Hi Activity2004 ,

Your Omelette looks really great. Tasty!

Thank you, Zest ! It was very wonderful and light. I'm not sure what the plan will be for tonight's dinner, but that will be posted either tonight or wait for a few days (time-wise).

Omelette looks delicious! I may do one after rowing tomorrow.

[Activity2004 Administrator in reply to ShadowDee]

Thank you for letting me know, ShadowDee . Where do you go to row? The eggbeaters will help a lot since they keep you full longer during the day.

[ShadowDee in reply to Activity2004]

I row on the River Mersey at Warrington. We have to be on the water by 8am. And finish at 10. Looks like it's -2 tomorrow 😱

[Activity2004 Administrator in reply to ShadowDee]

Wow! -2 is very cold. We are suppose to get snow, sleet, rain and hail as a mix starting early tomorrow morning out here. I'm hoping the weatherforcasters are wrong about this and they are just scaring everyone into shopping for extra items for nothing.

Hmm -I didnt know what eggbeaters meant either - dont want to be rude but any product that has something taken out and then has to have the nutrients added back in doesnt sound much of a healthy choice to me.

[Activity2004 Administrator in reply to alchemilla12]

They don’t have cholesterol and very low carb high protein.

[alchemilla12]

well the evils of cholesterol are a bit of a myth. check out Dr Malcolm kendrick on youtube

[Activity2004 Administrator in reply to alchemilla12]

What part of the medical field is he he in?

[alchemilla12]

a Gp who has done a lot of research into heart disease and cholesterol

[Activity2004 Administrator in reply to alchemilla12]

Where is he located?

[alchemilla12]

Macclesfield. Why dont you just google him and you can see his publication history

andyswarbs ,

I will send you a message soon. Please wait until I let you know.

[Activity2004 Administrator]

Please check your private messages now, andyswarbs . I just sent it. It’s okay.

[andyswarbs in reply to Activity2004]

I think anyone who thinks dietary cholesterol is okay for them is heading for health problems. Here is one (of many videos) on NutritionFacts nutritionfacts.org/video/ho... on the subject. As far as I can see the peer-reviewed independent research is totally overwhelming.

The US government has explicitly prohibited the description of eggs as "nutritious" or any similar word. This is one reason you see eggs described as "happy".

[Ouanne in reply to andyswarbs]

I thought happy eggs meant they were laid by happy hens. Why do people make things so difficult?

[Activity2004 Administrator in reply to Ouanne]

Not sure, but there are different meanings for the same items depending where you live.

[ShadowDee]

Activity! I gave egg beaters a try this morning. I had mushrooms spinach and cheese. Toast and coffee on the side. Turned out delicious and just wanted to thank you for sharing. And I'm hooked

[Activity2004 Administrator in reply to ShadowDee]

Great! Enjoy them!😀

[Hidden]
