There is a Polish saying that loosely translates as “Breakfast eat alone, Lunch with a friend but leave Diner for your enemy”. I am a bad translator and have no idea why I am talking about Polish sayings in a Mexican Omelette post. Maybe it is to remind myself that I have not added anything eggy in breakfast recipes. Truth be told egg omelettes are the most common breakfast/brunch item on our menu. They are perfect since they fill you up for most of the day you are not starving by noon, plus they are a snap to make.
For one large Mexican Omelette you will need: 2 eggs, 1 tbs butter (less depending on the size of skillet), 2 tbs Mexican Style Taco Cheese, hand full of corn chips.
For garnish: avocado, salsa, sour cream. Cilantro, pickled jalapenos not pictured. I love pickled jalapenos and will add them to anything remotely resembling Mexican.
In order to make an omelette you need to break some eggs
and mix them around with a fork, scramble them
heat the pan to medium high and melt the butter. This will work quickly so be prepared and do not burn the butter.
pour the egg into the pan and move the pan around to make sure it covers the entire bottom
sprinkle the cheese on the bottom
crunch up corn chips or your favorite chip on top
when it is set fold over itself
and fold again, top with sour cream
salsa, avocado, cilantro. Sour cream and salsa are a must the rest is up to you. Enjoy, play around with your favorite cheeses and chips and you will want to have omelette for breakfast every day.
My husband is an omelette man and he would love this. I never would have thought to add the corn chips, nice touch.
How interesting! Thanks for sharing. I am a big fan of putting chips on sandwiches, so this is right up my alley. Looks great, can’t wait to try it.
