Smokes salmon & chive omelette.
Why this is peri-perfect… This omelette gives you everything your perimenopausal body is quietly begging for first thing in the morning: steady protein, healthy fats, and zero blood-sugar chaos. The eggs and smoked salmon deliver over 30g of protein to fire up your metabolism, keep cravings calm, and support lean muscle - your greatest ally in midlife. The omega-3s in salmon smooth inflammation, lift mood, and support brain clarity on foggy days. And that little swirl of crème fraîche adds creamy satisfaction so you start your day feeling nourished, grounded, and beautifully steady. Plus, absolutely delicious.
Ingredients (serves 1)
2 large free range eggs
100g smoked salmon, chopped
1 tsp olive oil
1 tbsp crème fraîche
1 tbsp fresh chives, finely chopped
Salt & pepper
Instructions:
1. Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat and add the olive oil.
2. Whisk the eggs with a pinch of salt and pepper, then pour into the warm pan.
3. Let the eggs gently set, nudging the edges toward the middle so the uncooked egg runs to the sides.
4. Once just set, add the smoked salmon, until the salmon is pale pink and the omelette is brown underneath.
5. Add a little dollop of crème fraîche, and sprinkle generously with chives.
6. Slide onto a plate.
7. Add another tiny swirl of crème fraîche on top if you’re feeling fancy.
