Ingredients
  • 1/2 Yellow or Sweet Onion
  • 1/2 Red or Orange Pepper
  • 1/3cup Shredded Cheese
  • 4 Eggs
  • 1/2lb SausageChorizo is my favorite option, but bacon and regular breakfast sausage are also delicious.
  • 2Tablespoons milk or cream(1 per omelet)
  • 1/4Teaspoon Black Pepper(1/8 per omelet)
  • 2Tablespoons ButterMake sure to melt enough in the pan before the eggs to make sure the omelet doesn’t stick!
  • 4Tablespoons Sun-dried Tomato Cream Cheese
Instructions
Filling
  1. Chop the peppers and onions into 1cm chunks. Pan fry with 1/2 tablespoon of butter until the onions are becoming caramelized and the peppers are getting soft. Remove from pan and set aside.
  2. Cook the meat in the same pan until it is fully cooked. While meat is cooking prepare the eggs. Remove from pan and set aside.
Eggs
  1. Crack 2 eggs into a cup. Add 1 Tablespoon of milk and 1/8 teaspoon of black pepper. Whip until well scrambled.
  2. Melt 1/2 Tablespoon of butter in a medium sized skillet. Once the pan is hot pour in the egg mixture and rotate the pan until the egg coats the bottom in a nice circle. Let the egg start cooking on medium-low heat.
  3. Once the eggs start cooking sprinkle shredded cheese over the eggs.
  4. Add the sun-dried tomato cream cheese, placing it in a thin row down the middle of the egg circle. Its sticky so I usually use a spoon and my finger to get it in a line.
  5. Place a lid on the pan and let the egg cook for 1-2 minutes until the egg isn’t liquid anymore and the cheese starts to melt.
  6. Add the veggies and the meat along the same line down the middle of the egg as the cream cheese. Replace the lid and cook for another minute or two, until the egg is fully cooked and no longer runny.
  7. To fold the omelet, start on one side and slide your spatula under the egg, making sure it is not stuck to the pan. Fold one half of the egg over the filling and then do the same with the other side. This and getting it out of the pan is the hardest part because it’s really easy to break the egg! Even if you break it, it will still be delicious.
  8. Once you have the sides folded make sure the egg is loose in the middle and slide the omelet out of the pan onto your plate and enjoy!
