Like frittatas, omelettes are a hearty egg dish that’s totally packed with protein and can make a great fuel meal for any time of day. Yes, that’s right—I don’t reserve omelettes just for weekend breakfasts. Lunch and dinner are fair game, too, especially with omelettes containing a lot of meat and vegetables. All of these omelette recipes are tasty, and they’re all paleo or easily adaptable to paleo by skipping the cheese (unless you’re looking for a cheat). Get cooking!

7. Egg Foo Young

Egg foo young is a Chinese-American dish made with eggs, bean sprouts, celery, Chinese cabbage, cooked chicken, scallions, coconut aminos, and a yummy honey sauce with apple cider vinegar. It resembles an omlette in taste, texture, and looks, but with an Asian twist.

The bright and cheerful flavors of this omelette are led by lime and avocado, along with yellow onions, chili peppers, ghee, and if you like things spicy, Frank’s Red Hot sauce. If you eat dairy, you can also throw in some aged cheddar, but it’s totally not necessary.

10. Puerto Rican Omelette

If the recipe title has “Puerto Rican” in it, you know it’s bound to include plantains. Plaintains are one of my very favorite foods, and this omelette also has freshly ground black pepper, onion, bell pepper, spinach, and frehs herbs. You can use coconut or almond for the milk.

11. Sweet Potato Spanish Omelette

A Spanish omelette is a little thicker than the ones you’re probably used to, and usually involves potatoes. Half omelette, half frittata, this sweet potato Spanish omleette also has mixed bell peppers, coriander, shallots, parsley, and white pepper.

12. Breakfast Rutabaga Rosti

Here’s another hybrid dish, and this one has a twist that makes it a lot like hash browns. But instead of potato, it has rutabaga! You’ll need butter or coconut oil (no need for vegan margarine), olive oil, rutabaga, onion, eggs, kosher salt, and freshly ground black pepper.

14. Sweet Blueberry Lemon Puffed Omelette

This sweet omelette is a fun departure from the savory, especially when you consider that it’s still nutritious! You’ll need eggs, raw honey, coconut milk, lemon juice and zest, fresh or frozen blueberries, coconut oil, and more berries for serving.

15. Bacon, Jalapeno, and Spinach Omelette

Everything is better with bacon—especially when the main ingredient is eggs! This all-in-one breakfast has the protein of eggs, the salt-sweet flavor of bacon, and the heat of delicious jalapeno peppers. If you eat diary you can add shredded cheese, but it’s totally not necessary.

16. Dressed Up Spanish Omelette

This omelette has it all, from eggs to kale to chorizo sausage, and boy, is it seriously delicious. The savory garlic and Spanish onion add a spunky flavor, as do the green onions, and if you’re so inclined, a bit of feta or a lemon wedge (or both) would go nicely.
