What is a Just Egg Vegan Omelette Mug?

It’s a single-serving, plant-based omelette made in the microwave using Just Egg —a vegan egg substitute made from mung beans. You pour it into a mug, add your favorite mix-ins, microwave it for a minute or two, and breakfast is served.

What’s the best way to cook it without it sticking or spilling over?

Use a wide, 12–16 oz mug and coat it lightly with olive oil or non-stick spray. Microwave in short bursts, stirring halfway through. This method ensures your Just Egg Vegan Omelette Mug has the ideal texture, with no spills or mess to clean up.

Can I add veggies, cheese, or seasonings?

Yes, and you totally should! Great combos include spinach + mushrooms, red pepper + vegan cheddar, or just a dash of garlic powder and smoked paprika. Keep total mix-ins under 3 tablespoons to avoid sogginess.

How long should I microwave it?

Start with 45 seconds, stir, then go another 30–45 seconds depending on your microwave’s power. Let it sit for 1 minute to finish cooking through without drying out.

Is it gluten‑free or allergen‑friendly?

Yes, Just Egg is naturally free from gluten, dairy, and soy. If you’re adding toppings, just be sure they match your allergy needs. Always double-check your labels if allergies are a concern.

Can I make it ahead of time and warm it up when I'm ready to eat?

Definitely. You can combine all the ingredients in the mug the night before, refrigerate it, and microwave it in the morning. Alternatively, cook it completely ahead of time, let it cool, and reheat later with a splash of plant-based milk to maintain its softness.
