  1. How did Denny's manage to make a "9 net carb" omlette?

    Three-egg omelette with sausage, bacon, green peppers, mushrooms, onions and
    diced tomatoes. Topped with shredded Cheddar cheese and served with tomato
    slices.
    Carbohydrates=11 Calories=662 Fat=53 Fiber=2

    Eggs, sausage, bacon, green peppers, mushrooms, onions, and tomatoes are
    supposed to have virtually no carbs! Can I modify this to make it less? (EG:
    hold off certain ingredients that'll make the carb count lower?)

  2. they may have thier own weird stuff - like Denny's Special Cheddar - who the
    heck knows!

    I was at Ruby Tuesday's the other day having the salad bar. I went to use
    the oil & vinegar and read the vinegar bottle. i thought it was weird
    because it was cider or malt vinegar colored and labled "Salad Vinegar"
    Turns out it was White vinegar & sugar as the main ingredients!! I requested
    lemon wedes from the server and made dressing with oil & lemon.

    I don't like eating out just for this reason. For one thing - are you really
    gonna get a better omelet from Denny's than at home? It's probably gonna
    cost you 5 bux too! Then even if you think you are making good choices you
    can't expect the 19 year old server to know every ingredient in the mystery
    food they are serving.

    At least Denny's trys to warn you.

    I also try to avoid eating out for your reasons and because of the expense.

    Without knowing their exact recipe, hard to say. Doing it with the
    eggs, sausage, bacon, and cheese wouldn't be difficult at all. There
    would have to be some measuring of the vegetables used to keep it to
    that total.

    Tomatoes, green peppers, and onions definitely have some carbs. So do
    many of the other ingredients, to a lesser extent. A fair amount of
    the carb count is likely coming from the tomatoes if they are using
    them diced in the omelette and also serving slices. Just a guess.

    Just look up the carb counts of all the items, and measure accordingly
    to get the total you want for the meal.

    Eggs have carbs, too. Also, one cannot count on these numbers as your
    omelet may be different than someone elses.

    Sounds pretty darned good to me as it is. Yummmmm. And only 9 grams carbs.

    TC

  9. I opted for a bacon & cheddar omelet, which had 3 or so net carbs.

    I couldn't help eating out - my friends were getting together.

    Their burgers had like 9 net carbs, too, it was ridiculous. Must be the tomato
    & onion, as someone on here suggested.

    eggs, peppers, mushrooms, onions and tomatoes all have carbs. the
    problem isn't with denny's, it's your ignorance.

  11. I heard that IHOP mixes pancake batter in their eggs to fluff them up.

  12. I dunno specifically about Denny's, but IHOP and some other
    pancake chains are known for putting pancake batter in the
    scrambled eggs and omelets.
