Notes
You can add whatever veggies to this recipe. Some days, I like red bell peppers in my pulled pork omelette, other days I like mushrooms and spinach. So long as the mozzarella is the first filling ingredient to be added! You want to ensure it gets all nice and melty.
You need a careful hand, especially when it comes to the flip. Many are led to believe that the best flip is done in one swift move, but the key is in how gently it’s done. If you’re not confident in your flipping skills, you can also cook the eggs into a “pancake” and top it with the pulled pork and the rest of the filling.
To make this recipe vegan, you can swap out pulled pork for jackfruit. It has a similar taste and texture to pulled pork when cooked! A great egg substitution is chickpea flour. It’s high in protein and fiber and, once cooked, it has a similar flavor and texture to eggs.
