Guacamole Omelettes are delicious, packed with nutritious proteins and fats, and make the perfect healthy lunch or brunch.
The main ingredient in guacamole is avocado. And if you don’t know by now, avocados are an excellent source of healthy fats.
In Ireland, avocados are more popular than apples and oranges in the everyday shopping baskets of Irish consumers. It goes to show that people in this country are becoming more conscious of nutritional foods and healthy fats. Avocados and eggs can cause problems in some people. Food intolerances to the yolks of eggs and the sorbitol (a polyol) in avocado are sometimes the cause of intolerances. Generally speaking, the majority of people will find this dish delicious and nutritious.
Go for organic avocado and organic eggs to avoid pesticides and other unsavoury growing practices such as battery chicken farming.
