SOUTHWEST OMELET
I like the southwestern flavor profile, but not the heat. Using a poblano instead of jalapeño solves my problem - everyone can put on their own favorite hot or milder sauce/salsa at the table. (If your omelet doesn't turn out pretty, just call it a Southwest Egg Scramble!)

Steps:
- 1. Spray skillet with cooking spray. Heat to medium-high. Add tomatoes, peppers and onions. Saute until softened. Add garlic to cooking veggies.
- 2. Crack eggs into cup and whip together with fork. Pour over veggies in skillet. Reduce heat to medium. Push edges of eggs away from sides to let liquid eggs run to edges. (You know: make an omelet!)
- 3. When center is still somewhat undercooked, sprinkle on oregano, cheese and bacon bits. Turn off heat and cover skillet until cheese is melted - a couple minutes.
- 4. Add any or all of mentioned garnishes. Without the sour cream, it is only 1 WW Smartpoint for half an omelet!
SPICY SOUTHWEST EGG ROLLS
I started out making a southwest eggroll recipe that's on Zaar, but I left out a lot and added a lot and basically changed the whole thing, so here's my version :) *Note: I bake these, but they certainly could be fried in oil also.

Steps:
- Add 1 Tbsp vegetable oil to small skillet; preheat to medium-low. In a small bowl, combine chili powder, cumin, garlic powder & salt.
- Rub seasonings mixture onto both sides of both chicken breasts; add chicken breasts to small skillet and cook 7-10 minutes, depending on thickness of your breast - until done, turning at least once.
- While chicken is cooking, dice your vegetables.
- Once chicken is done, remove from heat; set aside.
- Heat 1 Tbsp vegetable oil in large skillet; add diced red bell pepper, diced onion, minced garlic cloves and jalapenos to oil; saute until veggies are soft.
- Once chicken is cool enough to handle, slice into small cubes and add to vegetable mixture.
- Stir in frozen corn and black beans; mix thoroughly. Add cayenne now if you want.
- Turn heat to low, and slowly add cheese. Once cheese has melted, remove skillet from heat.
- To assemble eggrolls:.
- Place eggroll wrappers so that the points are facing north/south. Place about 1 1/2 Tbsp of chicken/veggie mixture into center of wrapper. Spread it out log-shaped from side to side, leaving about 1 inch of the wrapper on each side.
- Fold bottom point over mixture, then fold in each side. Then roll eggroll up remaining wrapper. I usually seal the final point with a brush of water.
- Repeat with each eggroll wrapper.
- When all the eggrolls are wrapped, freeze in a single layer for at least 4 hours and up to 2 months.
- To cook, place frozen eggrolls on a cookie sheet, and bake at 375 degrees for 13-16 minutes.
- I like to dip these in a spicy avocado sauce or salsa.
