Caprese Omelette : Low Carb


Now, here is a piece of Italy in a bite! This omelette gives you all the flavours from a Caprese salad in a filling, but low-carb, omelette.
Just great for a sturdy breakfast, lunch or even a light dinner...
I wonder when may you serve yours?

  3. that looks good, I have never been a big tomato fan, but I have been trying to eat them anyway in little bits and the other day I had a salad at the restaurant that had these tomatoes on it and it wasn't too bad :) I will be using them more.
    Hope you all survive the storm passing over, always a worry about trees falling with high winds.
