Mustard and Chili Omelet
This spicy twist to the classic omelet is perfect for foodies and health enthusiasts alike, offering a flavorful yet nutritious start to your day. Beyond being flavor powerhouses, both mustard and chili offer up a range of vitamins, minerals, and other healthful compounds. When you combine these two ingredients with eggs, nature's near-perfect protein, you get a breakfast that offers a healthy start to your day, helping you maintain energy levels, build muscle, and even lose weight.
Pair your omelet with a side of crisp Homemade Bacon or Prosciutto-Wrapped Beef Cubes, which will add a salty depth that complements the spiciness of the mustard and chili.
