OPEN-FACED BREAKFAST
OMELET
Here is a nice, tasty open-faced omelet that can feed 4 with a side
of breakfast sausage or fried tomatoes, if desired.. This was delicious and more fun than a folded omelet. It even tastes better to me! I sort of scramble the eggs a bit, too, in order to let the uncooked egg flow onto the hot pan. It still sets like an open-faced omelet.
5 eggs
1/4 cup
almond milk, OR (60 mL)
whipping cream
1/4 tsp
salt (1 mL)
2 tbsp bacon fat, divided (30
mL)
1/2 lb
fresh, sliced mushrooms (250 g)
1 cup chopped onion (250 mL)
1 green bell pepper, diced
2 oz regular cream cheese,
cut into bits (60 g)
1/2 cup
grated Monterey Jack cheese (125 mL)
6 slices bacon, cooked
crispy, chopped (reserve bacon fat)
In
medium bowl, whisk eggs with almond milk, OR whipping cream and salt. Set aside.
In
nonstick frying pan, in 1 tbsp (15 mL) bacon fact, stir-fry mushrooms until
turning brown. Set aside. In 1 tbsp (15 mL) bacon fat, cook onion and
green pepper until soft.
Into
large nonstick frying pan, pour egg mixture.
As it begins to set, stir the egg a little to allow uncooked parts to
touch the pan. Add cooked mushrooms,
onions and green pepper and cream cheese bits.
Make sure the bottom of the omelet does not burn (reduce heat). Keep cooking until set. Sprinkle with Monterey Jack cheese and
chopped crispy bacon. Serve.
