Ingredients

Scale

For the Filling:

  • ½ pound ground beef (80/20)

  • 1 clove garlic, minced

  • ¼ small onion, chopped (optional)

  • Salt & black pepper to taste

  • ½ teaspoon smoked paprika

  • ¼ teaspoon chili powder (optional)

  • ½ cup shredded cheddar cheese

For the Omelet:

  • 3 large eggs

  • 1 tablespoon heavy cream or water

  • Pinch of salt

  • 1 tablespoon butter or oil

Optional Toppings:

  • Green onions

  • Sour cream

  • Jalapeños

  • Avocado slices

Instructions

  • Heat a skillet on medium. Add ground beef. Cook until brown.

  • Add garlic and onion. Cook 3–4 more minutes. Season with salt, pepper, paprika, and chili powder.

  • Turn off the heat. Mix in the shredded cheese. Set aside.

  • In a bowl, beat the eggs with cream or water and a pinch of salt.

  • Heat a non-stick skillet over low to medium heat. Add butter or oil.

  • Pour in the eggs. Let them cook slowly. Lift the edges with a spatula to let raw egg run under.

  • When mostly cooked, place the beef mixture on one half of the omelet.

  • Fold the omelet over the filling. Let sit for 30 seconds so the cheese melts.

  • Slide onto a plate. Add toppings if you want. Serve hot.

Notes

  • Use pre-cooked beef to save time.

  • Mozzarella or pepper jack also work well.

  • Store leftover filling in fridge for up to 4 days.

  • You can double the eggs for a bigger omelet or split into 2 smaller ones.
