Description

A three-cheese omelet topped with chili, sour cream, and tomatoes. A great way to start the day.

Ingredients

  • 2 whole Eggs
  • 1-½ Tablespoon Milk
  • 1-½ Tablespoon Butter
  • 2 Tablespoons Grated Mozzarella Cheese
  • ¼ cups Cubed Hot Pepper Jack Cheese
  • 3 dashes Ground Black Pepper
  • 1 cup Prepared Chili
  • 2 Tablespoons Grated Cheddar Cheese
  • ½ whole Tomato, Diced
  • 2 teaspoons Sour Cream
  • 1 Tablespoon Diced Jalapeno (Optional)
  • 2 teaspoons Diced Red Onion (Optional)
  • ½ whole Lime

Preparation

Put the eggs in a medium size bowl. Add the milk to the eggs and set aside.

Add the butter to a pan. Heat the butter on low to medium heat.

Just before all of the butter is melted, whisk the egg mixture briskly so that air bubbles form. Add the egg mixture to the pan and turn the heat down to low. Put a lid over the pan. After about two minutes, remove the lid. The egg should be just about cooked through.

Top just half of the egg surface with the mozzarella and hot pepper jack cheese. Add the pepper.

Using a spatula, gently lift the other half of the egg surface (the side without the cheese). Then, flip the “non-cheese” side over on top of the cheese.

Remove the pan with the omelet in it from the heat, and put the lid back on.

Warm up the chili in the microwave or in a pan on the stovetop – heating just until it’s hot. Add the hot chili over the omelet.

Then, top the chili with the cheddar cheese, tomato, sour cream, jalapeno, red onion, and the juice of the lime.
