SPICY ZUCCHINI OMELET



Spicy Zucchini Omelet image

First place winner of the Summer 2011 Dining on a Dollar Contest, this is a quick and easy Mexican influenced omelet. The qualifying ingredients are zucchini, eggs, purple onion, cumin and salsa. Thanks to everyone who tested, reviewed and rated this recipe, I appreciate your time and comments. I have revised the recipe slightly based on reviews during the contest, and have added a step to saute the zucchini and onions prior to adding them to the eggs. Feel free to reduce the number of eggs to suit the number of diners or your personal preferences. Thanks again, everyone! :D *Tink

Time 18m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 tablespoons purple onions, finely diced
1/2 cup fresh zucchini, shredded (squeeze tightly to remove moisture)
6 eggs, lightly beaten
2 tablespoons cold water
1/8 teaspoon ground cumin
1/4 teaspoon chili powder
salt, to taste
pepper, to taste
3 tablespoons salsa
sour cream (optional for serving)

Steps:

  • Spray a skillet with non-stick cooking spray and heat on medium heat.
  • Saute the onion and zucchini for a few minutes to soften, but not brown them.
  • Meanwhile, add the water, cumin, chili powder, salt and pepper to the eggs and lightly beat to combine.
  • Pour egg mixture into skillet, over the onion and zucchini mixture, give it all a quick stir and then allow it to cook gently, untouched, for about 3 minutes.
  • Using a rubber spatula, gently lift egg around the edges, pushing slightly in toward the center, to allow the uncooked egg to flow underneath.
  • Reduce heat to medium-low and cook about 3-4 minutes, or until the top is mostly set.
  • Pour the salsa in a straight line from one end of the omelet to the other, just off center.
  • Gently pick up the opposite side of the omelet with your spatula and quickly fold it over onto the salsa.
  • Serve with sour cream and additional salsa.

SPICY OMELETTE



Spicy Omelette image

This is my own concotion. It's kind of an elementary recipe, really kind of goofy actually but I absolutely love omelettes and I have been working on this one for a while, adding imgredients and taking them out.

Provided by NovemberSong

Categories     Breakfast

Time 20m

Yield 1 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 large grade a eggs
1 cup milk
salt and pepper (to taste)
3 tablespoons Tabasco jalapeno sauce (or however much you like)
1 cup venison sausage (or whatever you like, but venison sausage is really good like this)
1/2 cup sharp cheddar cheese

Steps:

  • Mix eggs, milk, salt and pepper and tabasco together and whisk into a froth. Go overboard if you want, the fluffier the eggs are the better they seem to taste (IMNSHO).
  • Once eggs are in frying pan and cooking for a minute, add sausage.
  • Right before folding eggs into omelette, add cheese so it doesnt get too melted. Use whatever kind of cheese you like. I usually use sharp cheddar, but you can use a mexican blend or I sometimes use Monterey Jack.
  • Add two pieces of toast and a nice cup of chickory coffee and you've got a pretty good breakfast!
