1 piece (medium) of Mushroom Omelette (120 g) has 144 calories. That works out to 120 calories per 100 g. It contains 3.1 g of carbs, 10.4 g of protein, 9.7 g of fat and 1.3 g of fiber. Its 15.6 µg of Biotin covers 52% of the Daily Value. Its glycemic index is 25 (low), so it raises blood sugar slowly.
Mushroom omelette brings beaten eggs together with sliced mushrooms, cooked in a pan and often folded around the filling. Omelettes are associated with French cooking, while mushroom versions are a familiar home-cooked option in many places. The mushrooms may be sautéed before the eggs go in, or added on top as the omelette sets.
It is tender and savoury, with the mushrooms adding an earthy, juicy contrast to the softly cooked egg. Serve it hot for breakfast or brunch, or make it a quick lunch with toast or a green salad. Eggs make it a protein-rich choice, while mushrooms contribute flavour and some fibre. For a lighter plate, cook the mushrooms with a little oil and pair the omelette with vegetables.

High
How many vitamins, minerals and how much fiber this food carries per calorie. A high score means a lot of nutrition for few calories.
Medium
An EatBetter score computed from fiber, protein and calorie density. A high score means staying full longer on the same calories.
Both scores are calculated per 100 g and do not change with the selected portion. The satiety score is EatBetter's own calculation, not a clinical measure.

To make a mushroom omelette, sauté sliced mushrooms until tender and their released liquid has evaporated. Pour beaten eggs into the pan, cook over moderate-low heat until mostly set, then fold the omelette and serve while warm.
A mushroom omelette usually turns watery because the mushrooms release moisture while the eggs are cooking. Cook the mushrooms first until their liquid evaporates, and avoid crowding the pan; this also helps them brown instead of steam.
Yes, cook the mushrooms before adding the eggs. Raw mushrooms can release water into the omelette and may remain firm by the time the eggs are done. Sauté them until tender, then add the beaten eggs to the same pan.
Chives, parsley, and thyme all go well in a mushroom omelette. Add tender herbs such as chives or parsley near the end so their fresh flavor remains, while a little thyme can be cooked with the mushrooms.
Yes, cheese works well in a mushroom omelette. Cheddar, Swiss, or a little goat cheese each pair nicely with sautéed mushrooms; add the cheese once the eggs begin to set so it melts inside as you fold the omelette.
Use a well-heated nonstick pan and coat its surface lightly with butter or oil before adding the eggs. Let the eggs begin to set before moving them, and loosen the edges gently with a flexible spatula.
A mushroom omelette is done when the eggs are set and no longer look runny, including around the fold. Cook over moderate-low heat so the center finishes before the outside becomes dry or browned.
You can freeze a mushroom omelette, but its texture may become softer or slightly watery after thawing. Cool it promptly, wrap it airtight, and thaw it in the refrigerator before reheating; freshly cooked omelette generally has a better texture.
A cooked mushroom omelette keeps for about 3–4 days in the refrigerator when stored in a covered container. Refrigerate it promptly rather than leaving it at room temperature, and reheat only the portion you plan to eat.
A mushroom omelette can be a nourishing meal because eggs provide protein and mushrooms add flavor and variety. Pair it with vegetables or whole-grain toast for a more complete meal, and use cooking fat and cheese in amounts that suit you.
