Ingredients

  • 8 eggs
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 1 pinch pepper
  • 4 tsp butter
  • 1/2 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
  • Salsa:
  • 1-1/3 cup cherry tomatoes, quartered
  • 1/3 cup chopped sweet green pepper
  • 1/3 cup chopped red onion
  • 4 tsp chopped fresh coriander or fresh parsley
  • 1 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 1 tbsp white wine vinegar
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp pepper

Preparation

Salsa: In bowl, combine tomatoes, green pepper, onion, coriander, oil, vinegar, salt and pepper; set aside.

In bowl, whisk together eggs, 2 tbsp (25 mL) water, salt and pepper just until blended but not frothy.

In 8-inch (20 cm) nonstick skillet, melt 1 tsp (5 mL) of the butter over medium heat. Pour one-quarter of the egg mixture into skillet; cook until almost set, gently lifting edge with spatula to allow any uncooked eggs to flow underneath, about 3 minutes.

Spoon 1/3 cup (75 mL) of the salsa onto half of the omelette; sprinkle 2 tbsp (25 mL) of the cheese over salsa. Fold uncovered half over top; cook for 2 minutes. Slide onto plate. Repeat with remaining ingredients. Serve with remaining salsa.

Additional information :

Time-Saver TIp: Replace homemade salsa with 2 cups (500 mL) of the store-bought variety.
