Low FODMAP Sausage and Egg Omelet

Instructions

  1. 1

    In a large bowl, whisk the eggs, almond milk, salt, and pepper until well combined.

  2. 2

    Spray a large nonstick skillet with cooking spray and place over medium-high heat.

  3. 3

    Pour in the egg mixture and cook for about 3 minutes until edges start to set.

  4. 4

    With a spatula, gently pull the cooked eggs away from the edge of the pan.

  5. 5

    Tilt the pan so uncooked egg flows into the spaces you've created.

  6. 6

    Continue cooking for about 3 more minutes until eggs are mostly set but still slightly wet on top.

  7. 7

    Spread the cooked sausage pieces and cheese over half the omelet.

  8. 8

    Fold the other half over the filling.

  9. 9

    Cook for 1-2 more minutes to melt the cheese and finish cooking the eggs.

  10. 10

    Slide onto plates and garnish with chives.

FODMAP Notes

Use FODMAP-safe sausage made without garlic, onion, or high-FODMAP fillers. Many breakfast sausages contain onion powder - check labels carefully. Maple-flavored varieties are often safer. Eggs and cheddar are safe.

Tips

  • 💡 Make your own sausage to control ingredients
  • 💡 Don't overfill or the omelet won't fold properly
  • 💡 Low heat prevents rubbery eggs
  • 💡 Add diced bell peppers for extra color

Recipe Notes

This filling omelet is perfect for weekend mornings when you want something substantial. The key is using sausage that’s free from garlic and onion.

Substitutions
