Ingredients:
2 large eggs
1 medium red onion, finely chopped
1 tablespoon olive oil
Salt and pepper, to taste
Optional: herbs such as parsley or chives for garnish
Optional: a pinch of turmeric or cayenne pepper for extra anti-inflammatory benefits
Instructions:
Prepare the Onion:
Peel and finely chop the red onion.
Cook the Onion:
Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Add the chopped red onions and sauté until they are soft and translucent. This should take about 5-7 minutes. The slow cooking helps release the natural sugars of the onions in a way that won’t spike blood sugar levels.
Add the Eggs:
In a bowl, beat the eggs with salt, pepper, and if using, turmeric or cayenne pepper.
Pour the beaten eggs over the sautéed onions in the skillet.
Stir gently with a spatula, allowing the eggs to cook and scramble with the onions. Cook to your desired level of doneness.
Serve:
Remove from heat and transfer to a plate.
Garnish with chopped herbs like parsley or chives for added flavor and nutrients.
Serving Suggestions:
Serve hot with a side of mixed greens or a slice of whole-grain bread for a balanced meal.
Benefits of This Meal for Blood Sugar Control
The combination of fiber from the onions and protein from the eggs helps slow down glucose absorption, which prevents spikes in blood sugar.
The chromium in red onions improves insulin sensitivity, which is beneficial for managing blood sugar levels.
Adding herbs and spices like turmeric can enhance anti-inflammatory benefits, important for overall metabolic health.
This simple scrambled eggs with red onions recipe not only adds variety to your meals but also contributes to better blood sugar management. Regular consumption, as part of a balanced diet, may help stabilize energy levels throughout the day and support overall health.
