Makes two omelets.
Approximate cooking time: 30 minutes
Ingredients
- poblano, green chili or bell pepper
- 4 eggs
- 1 tsp freshly ground black pepper
- 2 tsp coconut oil
- 1/2 lb nitrite/nitrate free beef or pork sausage links, cooked and sliced
- 2 Tbs fresh parsley, chopped
Instructions
- Put pepper in a heavy bottomed pan over high heat. Turn pepper as skin begins to blacken and blister on each side. When blistered on all sides, remove from pan and put in a plastic bag with a few drops of water; seal the bag immediately with plenty of air trapped inside. Wait 5 minutes. Remove from bag, cut out seeds, remove skin and dice.
- Meanwhile, beat eggs in a small bowl and add freshly ground black pepper.
- Heat medium non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add 1 tsp coconut oil when hot.
- Add half of the egg mixture to hot pan. As the egg starts to set, add half of the remaining ingredients to one half of the pan.
- When fully set, fold half of the egg over the filling, and cook a minute more.
- Repeat with second omelet.

New here. What is a Jones sausage?

Whoops, Jones was a name brand. Not sure how that got snuck in there. It’s removed. Just use normal sausage links.

Egg Beaters aren’t Paleo, or even healthy for that matter….

I am missing the info on what to do with the sausage in this recipe???
Neely
dandhal – See instruction #4. It falls in with “remaining ingredients”.

Why coconut oil instead of olive oil?

Just a question from what I understand the sausage should be weighed after cooking, but that is a lot of sausage per person. Am I correct with my understanding? Recipe very nice though.

monica – Thanks! The sausage should be weighed before cooking. That’s the general practice with this website’s recipes.
