Ingredients

  • 8 Large eggs, beaten
  • 1/4 tsp. Salt
  • 1/4 tsp. Freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 Tbsp. Meyer Lemon EVOO
  • 1/2 cup Hatch Chile Pesto
  • 1/4 cup Chopped fresh tomato
  • 1/3 cup Shredded cheddar cheese or
  • crumbled goat cheese
  • Chopped fresh cilantro (optional)

Directions

  1. Beat eggs together with salt and pepper. Heat oil in 10-inch non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add eggs to the pan.
  2. Cook, lifting edges with a spatula to let uncooked eggs flow underneath, for about 3 minutes, or until almost set.
  3. Sprinkle cheese and tomatoes onto one half of the omelet in the pan. Using a spatula, flip the empty half of the omelet over the filling. Cook for 1 to 2 minutes.
  4. Warm the pesto in a microwave-safe dish for 30-45 seconds on high in the microwave. Flip the omelet out onto a serving platter. Top with Hatch Chile Pesto and sprinkle with remaining cheese and a little cilantro if desired.
