The king of breakfast, the all-mighty omelet

This feel-good Keto Chorizo Omelet will fill you up & get you ready to face the day. The perfect match to the bold flavors of chorizo is caramelized onions, red bell peppers, tomatoes, Manchego cheese & spinach with a side of olive oil drizzled avocado topped with Maldon sea salt.
