Smoked Salmon and Goat Cheese Omlet

(4 servings)

Ingredients:

• 4 slices nitrate/preservative free smoked salmon
• 1/3 cup creamy goat cheese
• 2 TBS chives, finely chopped
• 4 cups fresh spinach, roughly chopped
• 1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped
• 1 tsp. olive oil
• 1 tsp. sea salt
• 1/4 tsp. black pepper
• 2 whole eggs
• 6 egg whites

How To Prepare:

Start by whisking together eggs, salt, pepper, parsley and spinach. In a heavy skillet, brush olive oil and ghee around bottom of skillet to create a non-stick surface. Pour egg mixture into pan on medium-low heat.

Using your spatula, lift the edges of the egg to allow raw portions of the egg to reach the bottom of the pan. In doing so, you are also ensuring that the egg is not sticking to the pan (if so, add a small amount of additional ghee to prevent sticking).

When the egg is fully cooked on the bottom, slide it out onto a plate and invert the skillet over the plate to flip the egg without breaking it apart.

With your spatula, divide eggs into four wedges and place on individual dishes.

Divide goat cheese evenly among the four dishes, slathering it on the top surface of the egg, top with one piece of smoked salmon and serve.

Naturopathic Doctor Says:

Protein packed meal that will stabilize blood sugar as well as provide wonderful essential fatty acids that are cardio-protective, anti-inflammatory and immune supportive. Goat cheese is a good alternative for many people who suffer from allergies to other dairy products. Ghee is a fat used in Ayurvedic medicine, and contains butyric acid, which is a fuel for intestinal cell repair. Chives are a member of the allium family, well known for cholesterol and blood pressure lowering compounds. Eggs contain plentiful levels of choline and lecithin, which can maintain brain, cardiovascular, liver and gall bladder health. The consumption of 2 eggs three times a week have been shown to lower cholesterol levels (not raise them, as commonly thought).
