Recipe Overview

Serving Size Serves 1
Method Griddle
Prep Time 5 Minutes
Cooking Time 10 Minutes
Difficulty Medium

Ingredients

  • Oil or butter
  • Omelet or egg ring
  • 3 eggs, beaten
  • Diced meat and veggies
  • Cheese of choice
  • Border Fiesta mix (see previous recipe)
  • Sour cream
  • Jalapeños
  • Green onions

Directions

  1. Heat griddle between 300 and 325 degrees. Always make your omelets last.
  2. If using a metal omelet ring, place it on the griddle while it heats up to prevent sticking.
  3. Generously coat the egg ring and the griddle with oil to prevent the eggs from sticking.
  4. Pour the eggs in slowly to avoid them running under the ring. If they do spill out, let them cook a bit and toss them back on top of the other eggs.
  5. After about 3 to 4 minutes, your eggs should set up. Carefully remove the ring, then slide your spatula under both sides of the omelet to loosen it up.
  6. Flip the omelet and cook for 30 more seconds.
  7. Add a pinch of shredded cheese, then fold the omelet over on itself.
  8. Top the omelet with the border fiesta mix, more shredded cheese, sour cream, jalapeños, and green onions.

Additional Notes

For an extra kick, consider adding more jalapeños or a splash of hot sauce to the Border Fiesta mix. You can also experiment with different cheeses or add avocado for a creamy texture.


Tips & Tricks

  • Ensure your griddle is well-oiled to prevent sticking, especially when using the egg ring.
  • Don’t rush the cooking process—let the eggs set properly before flipping to avoid a messy omelet.
  • The Border Fiesta mix can be prepared in advance and stored in the fridge for quick assembly.
