Inspired by a recipe in 500 Low Carb Recipes' cookbook. A perfect way to use up leftover taco (meat) filling from the previous night's meal-especially on one of those days you really don't want to cook. Ingredients:
2 eggs, beaten |
black pepper, as needed |
1/3 cup leftover taco meat, warmed (your choice- beef, chicken, tempeh, etc.) |
2 tablespoons cheddar cheese, shredded, divided |
2 tablespoons salsa |
1 tablespoon sour cream |
green onion, slices |
sliced ripe olives |
fresh cilantro leaves or fresh parsley leaves |
Directions:
1. Prepare the omelet as indicated by the recipe directions. (The omelet recipe specifies using 3 eggs. You can use 2 or 3 eggs-your choice).
2. Top the omelet with the warmed taco meat filling. Season with black pepper to taste.
3. Sprinkle the omelet with the cheese and garnish with your favorite toppings or the suggested toppings listed above.
4. Cookgirl in no way advocates using this filling in crispy taco shells. What comes around goes around - .
