What to Eat on a Keto OMAD Diet

The most important part of eating OMAD is to ensure you are getting enough healthy Keto-friendly fats, a generous helping of protein, and a helping of low carb veggies. Some great options for a Keto OMAD diet include protein such as beef, lamb, eggs, or fatty fish. Meals should also include healthful fats such as olive oil, coconut oil, butter, and avocado, as well as a small serving of low carb veggies such as cauliflower, salad greens, celery, and cabbage.

What Kind of Chicken Can I Use?

For this recipe, we have used cooked chicken leg meat with the skin on. This is a fattier cut of meat, which is preferable for Keto OMAD meals. You can either use store-bought rotisserie chicken or chicken legs, or alternatively, this is an excellent way to use up any leftover dark meat from a whole chicken! Please be sure to adjust your macros to account for any changes made to the recipe.

Ingredients

7 ounce chicken roasting dark meat only cooked roasted
3 large raw egg
2 tablespoon olive oil
1 each avocado
1 large – 3" diameter tomato
½ tablespoon basil, fresh
½ cup arugula
⅓ cup, grated mozzarella cheese
¼ teaspoon oregano, dried
¼ teaspoon salt, sea salt
⅛ teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

Crack the eggs into a mixing bowl. Add the grated mozzarella, oregano, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Beat together well to combine. You may add more or less oregano to suit your personal taste.
Heat a tablespoon of olive oil in a non-stick skillet over a medium heat. Pour the beaten egg mixture into the skillet and swirl around so that it coats the base of the pan in an even layer. Let the egg settle and cook through until no liquid remains on top. This should only take a few minutes.
Carefully slide the omelet out of the skillet and onto a large plate. Scatter the arugula over one half of the omelet. Roughly tear the cooked chicken into bite-sized chunks. Arrange the chicken pieces over the arugula. Fold the empty half of the omelet over the filled side to create your OMAD sandwich.
Thinly slice the avocado and cut the tomato into wedges. Roughly chop the basil. Add the tomato, avocado, and basil to a small bowl. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper and drizzle with the remaining olive oil. Toss to combine. Serve the salad alongside the omelet sandwich.
