This Keto Egg Fast Buffalo Omelette is easy to make and loaded with all your favorite delicious buffalo chicken flavor!
Yesterday I posted about the Keto Egg Fast that I’m undertaking, and a lot of you were interested in trying it out. For that reason I’ll be keeping track of what I eat, and posting the Keto Egg Fast recipes that I come up with here this week.
When I’m done I’ll post a complete Keto Egg Fast Diet Menu Plan for those of you that like the structure of knowing exactly what you’ll be eating. If you want to try it out using the basic guidelines that I’m using, you can find those here.
This morning I was down 5 lbs which was pretty awesome, not gonna lie! Now to be fair, I was retaining water having just finished up shark week, so the number may be inflated due to that.
Here’s a breakdown of the quantities of the eggs, butter, and cheese that I ate yesterday – I’ll be more detailed as to how I ate them when I post the keto egg fast meal plan at the end of the week.
What I Ate on Day One of My Keto Egg Fast Diet
10 eggs
4 oz cream cheese
1/2 oz blue cheese
2 Tbsp sugar free mayonnaise (Dukes)
8 Tbsp Kerrygold butter
1 Tbsp MCT oil (in my bulletproof coffee)
48 oz La Croix sparkling water
68 oz spring water
I was worried that it was too many calories, but since everyone says not to worry about it, I ate when I was hungry and this is how it turned out. 5 lbs down the next morning, and I’m not going to worry about calories again today either! I’ll post another recipe and my results from Day Two of the Keto Egg Fast Diet tomorrow!
This Keto Egg Fast Buffalo Omelette was my egg fast lunch yesterday and it was VERY filling and satisfying! I finished it myself because it was my largest meal of the day, but this could easily make 2 servings if you aren’t that hungry.
You could also make this Keto Egg Fast Buffalo Omelette frittata style by doubling the recipe, dropping the cream cheese mixture by spoonfuls into a greased casserole dish and then pouring the eggs over it and baking at 375 degrees (F) for about 30 minutes, or until firm. Then cut it into squares and reheat as needed.
Since the keto egg fast diet allows only eggs, butter, cheese, and limited carb free condiments, there isn’t a lot of variety in texture in this Keto Egg Fast Buffalo Omelette (though there is a LOT of flavor.) You could finely chop a couple of tablespoons of celery and add it, or some shredded chicken if you aren’t doing the keto egg fast diet and want something even heartier.

Arlene says
please, how are you eating the mayo?
Asia says
This is SOOOOOO yummy, and super easy to put together. It’s delicious, as is, but when I’m eating such things, again, can’t wait to try with a little leftover shredded chicken. :)
Jaymie Derden says
Yes, it would be like buffalo chicken… which my husband and daughter love. May have to try that for them!
Beth in Atlanta says
As I was adding the hotsauce to the cheese mixture, I thought ‘Maybe I read the recipe wrong and it’s supposed to be 1.5 teaspoons instead of 1.5 TABLESPOONS’. LOL.
My mouth is still all tingly! Extra hot but delicious none the less.
Thanks for the recipe. :)
Mellissa Sevigny says
I had to go back and make sure I didn’t say Tbsp lol! That must have been an experience ha ha!
Karen says
How do you make bulletproof coffee
Mellissa Sevigny says
There are lots of variations Karen but the base is usually 6-8oz black coffee with 1 Tbsp unsalted butter (preferably organic or grassfed like Kerrygold if you can find it) and 1 Tbsp of MCT oil or coconut oil. You’ll need to blend it in a magic bullet, blender, or use one of those handheld frother thingies to get it emulsified and creamy – otherwise it’s an oil slick and not very pleasant! You can also use your preferred no carb sweetener. Let me know what you think if you try it! I love it!
Elizabeth Buttle says
Is there a reason to add butter or oil to the coffee; what would be wrong with a gloop of heavy cream instead?
Mellissa Sevigny says
Some people find that HWC stalls their weight loss. The MCT oil is thermogenic and is supposed to give you energy while increasing your metabolism (among other things), and the grass fed butter is high in vitamins and a pure fat unlike the cream. No carbs and all energy. That being said, I’m just putting out there what I’m doing – everyone should tailor it to their own preferences and if yours is to have your coffee with HWC then that’s great. If you find you’re not having good results though, you may want to try omitting it.
Julie says
Bet you could just incorporate all the cheese stuff and make a tasty scramble too, right? I just know when I go to flip that one side, it’s gonna stick and tear and turn into a mess, lol! Can you tell I have experience? Great results and thanks for posting your sharing this with us.
Mellissa Sevigny says
Definitely – no need to make it an omelette if you don’t want to – all the flavor will still be there! :)
Sandi Blankenship says
Down 3.2 pounds this morning :) Very happy with that!

the night was happy we had breakfast for dinner!
I had:
2 fried egg, 3 tea eggs, 3 eggs in the buffalo omelet.
Lots of water
Chai tea with a splash of heavy whipping cream
Mellissa Sevigny says
NICE! Keep me posted as you go through the week!!!
Pat says
5 lbs! I would so thrilled to see a 5 lb drop so quickly. I cannot wait to start (this Wednesday). Thanks for the Buffalo omelette recipe and I look forward to more. I’ve been cutting carbs even more than usual the last 2 days to prep for this fast. I can “feel” the difference already. Will be wonderful to really get myself back on a losing track again.
Mellissa Sevigny says
Excited for you Pat, keep us posted once you start officially!
Sandi Blankenship says
Today is my Day 1 and so far I’ve had 2 eggs fried in 2 Tbs butter and 2 Tea Eggs. I made 6 Tea Eggs and the rest are simmering in the crock pot and the house smells fantastic :)
5 pounds off is awesome!!! And I’ll try this omelet for dinner. Thanks for posting it!
Mellissa Sevigny says
Thanks Sandi – I’ve never had tea eggs – do you just simmer the hard boiled eggs in tea? Would love to know more, thanks! Hope you have great success!
Sandi Blankenship says
Hi Mellissa! Love my tea eggs, the recipe is posted on my blog here:
http://flamidwyfe.com/2012/05/15/tea-eggs-with-a-twist/
The ones I made yesterday:
6 eggs in cold water, bring to a boil and boil for 8 minutes.
Run cold water over them for 1 min.
Lightly roll the eggs on hard surface to create cracks.
Place in crock pot.
2-3 oz of black tea (I actually threw in 2 bags of Republic of Tea “get lost” tea… SO YUMMY!
2 cinnamon sticks
6-8 star anise
Simmer for a couple of hours on low.
Leave on low throughout the day. Add more eggs at your leisure.
Enjoy… I love them. I started eating them when I was living in China in 2012 and on the Dukan Diet… they were my staple food!
Alex says
Are there any restrictions as far as using Swerve or the like? There is a crepe recipe that would work well with this aside from the fact I would need to add a bit of sweetener.
Mellissa Sevigny says
I’m using small amounts of sweetener Alex – since Jimmy Moore had 3 diet sodas a day on his, I figure the small amount of no carb sweetener I’m using is much less, so not illegal!
Dawn says
This looks great. Did you only eat half at a time? I guess im trying to figure out how much im supposed to eat for the day. Thanks for all your help.
Mellissa Sevigny says
I ate the whole thing Dawn because of the fast, but honestly half would have been more than sufficient! I think because it was my first day I was hungrier than normal. Today it’s after 12 and I’ve only eaten 2 eggs with butter so far. I will force myself to eat a couple of hard boiled eggs soon but I’m not hungry at all. Could be all the water I’m drinking too! Just be sure not to skimp on the fat for the sake of calories or I think it will hurt your results. Less eggs and more fat if you’re not hungry or don’t want to go over a certain calorie number. Hope that helps, keep us posted!!!
Kelli says
Hi- is there another kind of fat for the bullet coffee than MCT? Thanks
Mellissa Sevigny says
A lot of people use coconut oil Kelli!
Linda Martin-Peoples says
…and butter! I love butter in it!
