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
- Heat griddle between 300 and 325 degrees. Always make your omelets last.
- If using a metal omelet ring, place it on the griddle while it heats up to prevent sticking.
- Generously coat the egg ring and the griddle with oil to prevent the eggs from sticking.
- 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.
- 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.
- Flip the omelet and cook for 30 more seconds.
- Add a pinch of shredded cheese, then fold the omelet over on itself.
- 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.
