Canadian Bacon and Potato Omelet image

This omelet is based on a recipe I saw in Redbook magazine that was a take on IHOP's Country Omelet. This version is now mine, lol. Theoretically, this is one serving but it served the two of us just fine.

Categories     Breakfast

Time 20m

Yield 1-2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 large eggs
2 large egg whites
1/2 cup chopped Canadian bacon (or bacon bits or sausage crumbles)
1 tablespoon cilantro, chopped
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 dash pepper
2 tablespoons canola oil
1/4 cup chopped green onion
1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and chopped
1/2 cup diced potato (like frozen Southern style)
1 teaspoon butter
1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese
sour cream
pico de gallo

Steps:

  • Whisk together eggs, egg whites, canadian bacon, cilantro, salt and pepper. Set aside.
  • In non-stick skillet, add oil and saute onion for 1 minute then add potatoes and cook over medium heat until browned, about 5 minutes. Remove potatoes to a plate and set aside.
  • Melt butter in the skillet and pour in egg mixture. The eggs should begin to set around the edges almost immediately. Lift edges and tilt skillet to allow uncooked egg to roll under cooked eggs. Continue until eggs are set.
  • Sprinkle eggs with cheese and add potatoes to top of omelet then fold eggs over to enclose cheese and potatoes. Remove to a plate.
  • At this point, I cut the omelet in half and place on two plates. I sprinkle a bit more cheese over top of omelet, add a dollop of sour cream and a sprinkling of pico de gallo.
  • NOTE: I recently read a tip to cut the heat in jalapinos without sacrificing the flavor -- After seeding the peppers place in abowl of hot tap water for 10-20 minutes to soak out pepper oils which hold the heat of the peppers.

I made this omelet for my family and they loved it. It's a great way to get them to eat their vegetables.

This is a great recipe for a low-carb breakfast. I used egg whites instead of whole eggs and it was still delicious.

I'm not a fan of Canadian bacon, so I used ham instead. It turned out great!

This omelet was a little too greasy for my taste. I think I would have preferred it if I had used less butter.

This omelet was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either.

I followed the recipe exactly and my omelet turned out dry and overcooked. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

This omelet was a little bland for my taste. I think I would have liked it better with some more seasoning.

This omelet was easy to make and turned out great. I used a cast iron skillet, which gave it a nice crispy exterior. The filling was flavorful and filling.

I'm not usually a fan of omelets, but this one was really good. The Canadian bacon and potatoes added a lot of flavor, and the eggs were fluffy and light.
