This may sound weird but when mixed together it's awesome. Also it's very low-carb and filling.

This was delicious. I made two minor changes. I was afraid the asparagus would be undercooked so I added it to the sautéed veggies about one minute before they were done. I also used bacon instead of ham because I had some bacon already cooked in the freezer. I used more than two slices of provolone because I love cheese in an omelet. The provolone was an unusual ingredient but it added lots of flavor. Mushrooms would also be good. As the author said, it was filling. I only ate about half and it was great reheated the next day.

I made this exactly as presented and it was very good. In my opinion the amount of ham could be cut in half so the other flavors would not be overpowered. Read More

Turned out great. For two senior adults, I used: just 4 eggs; next time I’d use 3, 2 T. Oil, 8 slices of bacon (next time I’ll use 4 slices.), 1/2 t. Garlic salt. The full recipe for two people made for a big portion for each of us. BUT, I will definitely make this again. It is delicious. Read More

Loved it. Easy to make and a great portion too. I didn't used the garlic salt but regular instead which tasted too salty but next time I just use less. Read More
