A great midweek meal or substantial lunch, this tasty omelet takes just minutes to prepare and cook. With crunchy corn chips, melted cheese, and salsa, everyone will love it!

Prep Time: 5 minutes

Cooking Time: 15 minutes

Serves 4


Ingredients

  • 6 eggs, beaten

  • 1 red capsicum, chopped

  • 1 red onion, chopped

  • Grated tasty cheese (Approx. 3/4 cup)

  • Purchased Mexican salsa (I use mild El Paso) (Approx. 1/2 cup, or to your taste)

  • Corn chips (Approx. 200gm lightly crushed)

Method

  1. Add the chopped capsicum and onion to a large non-stick pan with a teaspoon of olive oil. Sauté until soft and slightly colored.

  2. Add the beaten eggs and cook until just beginning to set. Sprinkle over grated cheese and dollop on small spoonfuls of salsa.

  3. Place under a hot grill until the cheese has melted and the eggs are set.

  4. Dollop with more salsa, sprinkle with lightly crushed corn chips and extra cheese.

  5. Return to the grill for another minute.

  6. Serve with sour cream, fresh basil, and coriander leaves.
