Seafood for breakfast? Sounds delicious!
Crab and eggs probably seem like a strange duo but think about it like this: so many egg dishes feature meats like ham, turkey and sausage; crab is simply another protein.
This recipe doesn’t just call for any kind of crab, it calls for Ocean Legacy crab meat from Heinen’s Seafood Department. Pre-packaged for your convenience, and to lock in freshness, Ocean Legacy offers hand-picked 100% real North American crab meat. In addition to its remarkable freshness, it is also free of preservatives and doesn’t have any of the metallic taste that is so common in canned seafood.
Wrapped in warm, herby eggs and topped with gochujang for spice and microgreens for color, this seafood-filled omelet will make breakfast the most luxurious meal of the day!
