The creamy quark omelette with chives combines fluffy eggs with silky-smooth low-fat quark into a surprisingly full texture. The fresh chives give a fine, refreshing peppery note that finishes the whole thing elegantly. A breakfast that feels light but keeps you satisfied for hours.

Why this recipe fits Phase 1: in this phase, the focus is on plenty of protein and few carbohydrates, and with just over thirty grams of protein per portion and only a few grams of carbohydrates, this dish fits perfectly there. The proteins from egg and quark create a lasting feeling of fullness, so you get through the morning steadily without hunger. That makes it an ideal high-protein start within the protein diet.

Lovely with a handful of mixed salad or a few cucumber slices on the side for extra freshness. If you want to make it more hearty, add a pinch of smoked paprika powder just before folding.

Zo maak je het

  1. Whisk the eggs together with the lean quark, salt and pepper until smooth.
  2. Heat the olive oil in a frying pan over medium heat.
  3. Pour the egg mixture into the pan and let the bottom set gently.
  4. Lift the edges so the runny part can flow underneath.
  5. Sprinkle the chives over the top, fold the omelette in half and serve immediately.

Bewaren

Eat the omelette preferably right after preparation. Any leftovers will keep covered in the fridge for another day, though freezing is not recommended as the texture will become watery.

Variatietips

Swap the chives for fresh parsley or dill for a different flavour, or stir some finely chopped spinach through the egg mixture. A pinch of chilli flakes will make the omelette spicier.
