Ingredients

For the omelette

4 large eggs room temperature if possible
2 tablespoons heavy cream or unsweetened almond milk for lighter option
1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt or to taste
1/8 teaspoon black pepper freshly ground, or to taste
1 tablespoon butter or ghee, for the pan

For the filling

4 slices bacon sugar free, cooked crisp and crumbled
1/2 medium avocado ripe but firm, thinly sliced or diced
1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese or Monterey Jack or mozzarella
2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives or green onions, optional

Instructions

Cook the bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crisp, then transfer to a paper towel lined plate to drain and crumble it once cool enough to handle.
Crack the eggs into a mixing bowl, add the heavy cream, salt, and black pepper, and whisk until the mixture is smooth, slightly frothy, and well combined.
Heat a nonstick skillet over low to medium heat and add the butter, swirling the pan until the butter is melted and the bottom is evenly coated.
Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and gently tilt the pan so the eggs form an even layer, letting the edges set while the center remains slightly wet.
Use a spatula to gently pull the set edges of the omelette toward the center, allowing uncooked egg to flow to the edges until the top is just barely moist.
Scatter the shredded cheese evenly over one half of the omelette, then top with the crumbled bacon, avocado slices, and chopped chives.
Cook for another minute on low heat until the cheese is melted and the eggs are set but still tender, then carefully fold the bare half of the omelette over the filling.
Slide the omelette onto a plate, let it rest for a minute to finish setting, then cut in half and serve immediately while hot and the cheese is gooey.

Notes

For the best texture, cook the eggs low and slow to keep them soft and avoid browning. Use sugar free bacon to keep carbs minimal and drain well so the omelette is rich but not greasy. Slice the avocado just before assembling to prevent browning and use a ripe but still slightly firm fruit so it holds its shape. You can customize the filling with low carb additions like sautéed spinach, mushrooms, or a spoonful of sugar free salsa while keeping net carbs in check. Leftovers can be cooled, wrapped, and refrigerated for up to two days, then gently reheated in a covered skillet over low heat.
