southwest omelet
(2 ratings)
I like the southwestern flavor profile, but not the heat. Using a poblano instead of jalapeño solves my problem - everyone can put on their own favorite hot or milder sauce/salsa at the table. (If your omelet doesn't turn out pretty, just call it a Southwest Egg Scramble!)

How To Make southwest omelet
-
1Spray skillet with cooking spray. Heat to medium-high. Add tomatoes, peppers and onions. Saute until softened. Add garlic to cooking veggies.
-
2Crack eggs into cup and whip together with fork. Pour over veggies in skillet. Reduce heat to medium. Push edges of eggs away from sides to let liquid eggs run to edges. (You know: make an omelet!)
-
3When center is still somewhat undercooked, sprinkle on oregano, cheese and bacon bits. Turn off heat and cover skillet until cheese is melted - a couple minutes.
