Updated on Mar 21, 2011

This recipe was created when my wife’s best friend came for a fun girl’s weekend. They had fun and I treated them like royalty! We joked that they were the queens and I their loyal servant for the weekend. On Saturday morning, I decided to make omelets and saw the left-over mango salsa from the appetizer the night before. So I just put it on top of their omelets and they just loved it! It has been a breakfast favorite ever since.

This is a win, win, win! The mildly spicy fruit salsa turns a solid omelet into something truly spectacular. It's simple and oh-so versatile. Adjust the amount of jalapeno to suit your liking... then consider using this delicious salsa on other meats, fish or as a quick snack, too. Absolutely de-lish!

How To Make mango salsa omelet

  • Step 1
    Prepare mango salsa by dicing mangoes, tomatoes, onions, mince jalapeno and chop cilantro. Place in a bowl.
  • Step 2
    Pour in lime juice and add taco seasoning. Stir until all ingredients are mixed together and coated. (Mango salsa can be made ahead of time or the day before.)
  • Step 3
    Scramble eggs. Dice ham. Heat omelet skillet with butter. (I use a 6 inch small stick-free skillet.) When skillet is hot, add enough egg to cover bottom of skillet. When the egg mixture is almost firm yet still somewhat runny flip omelet over. (This will make the omelet fluffy).
  • Step 4
    Load one side of egg mixture with diced ham and shredded cheese. Fold over egg. Let heat through and then place on plate.
  • Step 5
    Cover omelet with mango salsa. Sprinkle with extra shredded cheese, salt and pepper to taste and enjoy!
