AHHHH I am so so so insanley busy this week it’s unreal! I have a test today, quiz tomorrow, a presentation and test on Friday, and massive amounts of lab reports to write up over the weekend. And next week is looking to be just as chaotic. OY. 
But, the stress is a little less harsh when awesome stuff randomly happens…
Take, for instance, the other day–I was faced with a predicament.
It was getting close to lunchtime and I had a hankering for pumpkin…but I also was craving eggs and peanut butter (yes, the addiction is still going very STRONG haha)
What’s a girl to do?!
Put random crap in a bowl and pray for success.
AND GUESS WHAT?! It was the most epic deliciousness ever.
Pumpkin Omelette Cake Thing
(paleo, grain free)
Ingredients:
2 whole eggs
2 egg whites
3/4 cup pumpkin
Instructions:
1. Plop all ingredients in a bowl and whisk REALLY well until it’s smooth.
Then you have 2 options…
Either you can just cook like a regular omelette in a skillet, or if you suck at flipping like me, invest in a microwaveable omelette maker!!!
Guys I adore this little thing. SO convenient and you can brag to your friends about your awesome omelette skills and they’ll never know 
BEST INVENTION EVER.
But I digress.
If you’re taking the omelette thingy route:
2. Pour half of the mixture in each side and microwave for 2 minutes or until it gets slightly cooked.
3. Close the container and cook for 2:45 or until it’s puffy and not runny.
4. Serve it up and top it with noms!! I opted for broccoli and a hefty slathering of nut butta
I seriously want to eat this combo every single day for the rest of eternity. The texture was like cake and it gave me energy to get through the afternoon! You could probably add stevia or sugar if you wanted it sweet, but I liked the plain flavor– the nut butter took it to a whole new level though haha
I’m so excited for all the pumpkin-y-ness that’s around the corner for fall! Man, I’m still in shock it’s October!
Well Mr. Omelette maker, you’d better get ready to be worn out and overused with pumpkin haha
What’s the weirdest recipe you’ve made to satisfy a craving? Favorite fall flavor?
HAHAH OMG I don’t even have a microwave but I want that omelet holder..so nifty and hey, pretty food always taste better! This recipe sounds great, kinda like a grain-less pancake..me likey
! Although it’s quite common in the blog world, I am sure the rest of the world would find the combo of eggs, cheese & jam weird..love it!
Mmmm I am SO making this soon.
OMG this looks amaaaaazing!!
I cannot handle how delicious that looks. I wonder if you could make a vegan version with flax eggs and mashed bananas? Hm.
OMG this is the best thing yet! I will be trying this soon thanks! I saw your comment about bee pollen on my blog…here’s a link all about it! http://mynewroots.blogspot.com/2011/05/whats-all-buzz-about-bee-pollen.html
Um, so yes this was just added into today’s meal plan!!! I can’t wait!!
Wish I had a cool cooking tool like you though!
Um WOW
I will be making that pumpkin omelette cake “thing” hahah
looks good!
I hope that you have an awesome week!
Stay healthy and awesome girl
xoxox
I love it when this kind of thing happens! YOu have no idea how many times I’ve gotten random cravings and decided to throw them all together to see if they fit. 99% of the time I end up loving them, but I don’t want to share because people would probably give me funny looks
Your pumpkin omelette seriously looks good though! Not like my hummus and banana/jam/applesauce creations 
That looks amazing!!! What a great idea! Oddly enough – I recently purchased the same microwaveable omelette maker! Will definitely have to try this!
Oh my gosh that is so amazing!! How the heck can I make that WITHOUT the omelet maker?? I love how fluffy and delicious it looks
Word to your mother I’m going to have to try that it looks awesome and so good. I think it will something for me to try in the near future for real.
I MUST try this.. I tried to do a similar thing in a cup, but need to adjust some ratios..
I am trying that. No joke. Holy yum
DUDE .. I made pumpkin scrambled eggs topped with almond butter the other day! Great minds think alike my friend.
I make TONS of strange combos. Almost always involving sweet potatoes, avocado, eggs and nut butters. Sometimes brown rice. And they always turn out fantastic, even though everyone thinks I’m weird so nobody asks to try it..more for me mwahaha
I NEED that omelet maker! Oh my gosh, I’m regaining MOST of my previous egg-cooking skills, but I cannot make an omelet in a pan to save my life. Love the name of your recipe, too. And the “put random crap in a bowl and pray for success” is my favorite sort of recipe, pretty sure that how I make 90% of my food ;D
This is awesome!! I would never ever think to do that, but now that I’m drooling over yours I might have to try. What is the texture like? I’m just afraid it’s a little slimy, with just eggs and pumpkin. If you tell me it’s not slimy, I’ll try it
It’s not slimy at all!!! It’s JUST like cake!
I make this all the time to eat my egg whites. Plain was getting really boring. The only difference is the yolk, and more pumpkin. Love it!
I love your creation thing! Especially cause it was totally random and it worked!! Eat your heart out, study study, and have a great rest of your week!
That omelet holder SO COOL! I wish I could eat eggs still, because I would be definitely making that recipe for my next meal! I really doubt that would work with egg replacer… Haha. No. Not even gonna try it
yum! love pumpkin season
That seriously looks SO GOOD! And a microwaveable omelet maker?! Yes please! I need to find one of those
!!!
You sound super busy! Make sure to get some rest after your crazy days!!
This sounds amazing. As you know I am going through my orange food obsession as well:) And eggs too! I’ve been eating eggs and kabocha for lunch so much this week! Instead of peanut butter I’ve been using coconut butter though. That butter is just magic in a jar. I think I need to try this asap.
Looks delicious! Is that almond butter on top? I can only imagine what a chocolate version of this would taste like! May sound kind of strange, but I love making 4, 1-egg omlettes with melted butter and cinnamon so that they taste like french toast. I’ll be making a post about it soon on my blog, so check it out.
YESS!!! It was almond butter– it gave it SUCH a great flavor!
I’ll definitely be checking out that recipe you mentioned, it sounds to die for!
Will do! Thanks for the recipe
I’ll be making it super soon!
Nommmmm!! I want that microwave container! How awesome
I love this idea! I wish I was more daring in the kitchen like you – I never have the guts to try out ideas like this!
YUM!!! making it tomorrow… that is if I haven’t turned into a giant orange blob yet…
too much pumpkin.
too many sweet potatoes.
too many crunchy carrots.
NOT ENOUGH TIME!
AGREED!!!
I have a feeling we’re gonna be oompa loompas by the end of the year… 
Umm yeah that is the best invention ever… need one, for serious though
I am going to turn orange at this rate, and I am proud of it muaha. Thanks for the epic recipe love!
This is SO right up my alley! Must try ASAP!
Do it!!! You’d go bananas! …or should I say pumpkins heehee
I’ve never been a fan of eggs, but this actually looks really good! Anything with pumpkin in it is a total winner though
oh lord that microwave omelet maker is genius!!! do the eggs taste microwavey though? that must making putting stuff in the middle of any omelet so freaking easy
Surprisingly not at all! I was scared about that too haha And YESSS it makes life so easy–I can’t wait to try other combos in it mwahaha
Cool recipe! I’m going to try this. I could use some breakfast variety
YUM!!!! And holy crap, that omelet maker is probably the best invention ever.
This is awesome. I’m making pumpkin muffins today but bought the extra large container of pumpkin since it was on sale. Now I know what to make with the left overs
Woohoo! Thanks.
This looks so good!! I really need pumpkin in my life, but for some strange reason I couldn’t find the giant display of cans that is usually in my grocery store. Whaaaat? I really need one of those microwave things too.. I can’t make omelettes when my mom isn’t around because I can’t flip them without her, lol.
awwww sh*t!! that looks good. If I was a big fan of pumpkin I would do it. I don’t think I’ve ever really truly HAD pumpkin. other than pumpkin spice latte and maybe like a fork of pumpkin pie.
Love this idea! I’ve been making lots of “sweet eggs” aka cinnamon + stevia + raisins but the addition of pumpkin is pefect for fall
Holy crap this sounds amazing
Pumpkin and eggs really do make a wonderful combination! Thank you for sharing
talk about heaven! I Am loving this recipe! I never would have thought pumpkin and eggs but lookey here! Need to go pick up a can of pumpkin and I am on my way to making this deliciousness! Love and Shine CourtStar
I need to get myself a microwaveable omelet maker, what a genius device! I love when random things thrown into a bowl and microwaved turn out, it always makes for a happy belly! This pumpkin omelette looks so delicious, I have got to try it!
It looks like a pumpkin cake…aka, I WANT IT. I will so be trying this and definitely topping with nut butter as well. Seriously, is there any better topping? I don’t think so.
That omelet maker might be the best invention ever!! I actually don’t mind flipping my omelets, but I do mind cleaning the burned egg on the pan afterwards!
This is a creation of my dreams, Alexandra! I’ve made pumpkin pancakes with the same ingredients, but somehow the omelet form sounds much more fun! And topped with peanut butter? I die. 
I hope that you made it through the crazy weekend in one piece! School is nutzo over here right now too! Midterms next week…AHH! Sending lots of good luck vibes your way, my dear! xoxo <3
Midterms SUCK!!! That’s what I’m goin through right now too Booooo haha And yess! You totally gotta get that omelette maker, it is FABULOUS!!!!!
This is fab recipe! Ill try to do it but on a normal skillet =)
