  1. 1

    Place the bacon in a skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Transfer the bacon to a paper towel-lined plate to drain, let it cool, then crumble the bacon.

  2. 2

    Preheat the oven's broiler and position the oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source.

  3. 3

    Whisk the eggs and milk in a bowl until smooth.

  4. 4

    Heat the vegetable oil in an omelet pan or skillet over medium heat and pour in the egg mixture. Swirl the pan so the eggs coat the bottom of the skillet evenly. Cook until the omelet is just set but the edges are not hard, 1 to 2 minutes.

  5. 5

    Carefully flip the omelet and cook the second side, about 1 more minute.

  6. 6

    Transfer the omelet to a broiler-safe baking sheet; top it with the crumbled bacon, diced tomato, deli turkey, and Monterey Jack cheese.

  7. 7

    Fold the omelet in half to cover the fillings and place it under the broiler until the cheese bubbles, about 2 minutes.

  8. 8

    Move the omelet to a serving platter and arrange the tomato slices on top. Pour hollandaise sauce over the omelet and sprinkle with parsley flakes to serve.

How easyChef Pro Scores This Recipe

easyChef Pro gives every recipe a health score from 0 to 100, built from more than 30 nutritional parameters including nutrient density, energy density and glycemic impact. It calculates rather than estimates, so the same recipe returns the same score every time.

The number is traceable. You can see exactly which nutrient moved it, so a dish scoring 78 might show fiber pushing it up while sodium pulls it down, alongside the NOVA processing level of each ingredient.

Your health goal changes the calculation itself, not just a filter. easyChef Pro applies clinically derived weighting across six health dimensions, which is why the same dish can score well for one goal and poorly for another.

Swap an ingredient or change the serving size and that math changes with it. Scoring your own version is the only way to see what your kitchen actually produces.
