Total carb for Ham and Cheese Omelette
Quite frankly it was amazing to me to discover that even with
my vast searching skills, I could not find JUST ONE!! site that could tell me what a typical, restaurant served, three egg/cheeder/ham omelette was in Carb value. You know what they need? A counter that does MEALS. All the Atkins ones, I've bought all his books never, ever put in something so simple like 'omelettes' Try to find it, you won't. SO can someone PLEASE!! tell me what the *ell a one of those omelettes has in carbs? I'm going to say about 2 carbs, maybe 3. That's via the tedious task of counting every single item in the damn thing. So much for technology, weight centers and doctors. ....Why do so many make it so complicated? I do appreciate a response from someone!!! Tks, LizardHead |

But by persevering, you can analyze any recipe you want for the counts you need .. Long as it's 12 ingredients or less .. -- Kitty =^..^= 168/161.6/130 Start: September 2003 |

I would expect a restaurant cheese omelet to be about the same but adding ham presents a problem. It would depend on the type of ham used because ham often has quite a bit of sugar from the curing process. BillJ |

Ask your server to ask the cook if there are any additives like pancake batter added to the omelette. (It enhances the fluff and texture of the eggs.) Don't rely on the server's word without checking. IHOP does this. I'm sure others do too. revek --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free. Checked by AVG anti-virus system (http://www.grisoft.com).

Total carb for Ham and Cheese Omelette
Thank you... I did not know about the sugar in ham.
I was staying away from sausage, per the Book, due to nitrates? and bacon as well.. Thought ham would be surely a safe way to go... Maybe turkey?? that would be interesting a Turkey and Cheese omelette... Hmmm. I'd have to put tabasco sauce on it though. Thank you everyone, I'm grateful. LizardHead Day 2 on diet... and I'm really supercharged.. Please last oh DietGodz, make it not go away.. the motivation!! "BillJ" wrote in message ... In article . net, LizardHead says...
