Paleo Pairing: Baked Omelet & Prosecco
Ever wonder what to pair with an omelet? Look no further than a nice glass of bubbly. Today’s Paleo Pairing is all about breakfast for dinner.
Eggs are pretty challenging to pair with wine, but a glass of sparkling wine works like a charm. I often go for a sparkling rose like the J Brut Rose from Sonoma, California, but I also love a fun, flirty Prosecco with omelets and frittatas. There are a lot of great Prosecco’s out there. I really enjoy the
Tesoro della Regina and the Montelliana Prosecco. Both retail for about $15.
One of the things that I love the most about making omelets is that you they are pretty much a blank canvas, you can add anything you want to it.
For tonight’s omelet, I added leftover roasted veggies and pesto shrimp. Feel free to add any veggies or meat that you like.
