Mexican Omelet Directions
- Cook vegetables in a large nonstick skillet sprayed with cooking spray on medium-high heat for 5 minutes or until they are crisp-tender, stirring occasionally. Remove them from skillet and set them aside.
- Beat the whole eggs, egg whites and water with a whisk until they are well-blended.
- Pour into the skillet and cover them. Cook for 6 minutes or until the egg mixture is almost set but the top is still moist. As the mixture sets, lift slightly with a spatula to allow the uncooked portion to flow underneath.
Top the eggs with vegetables and cheese. - Slip the spatula underneath, tip the skillet to loosen it and gently fold the omelet in half.
- Cover the omelet and cook for 3 minutes or until the cheese is melted.
- Serve it topped with salsa.
