"Great omelet with a nice Southwestern twist! I love bacon and avocado paired together so I had to give this a try. I cut this down a bit as this makes way too much for two people. I also used butter v..." See mores. Crisco (sorry) because I never cook my eggs that way and replaced the water with a little milk. Overall, very tasty and perfect served with a little sour cream and a side of toast!"

"Sorry Crisco, but I just couldn't cook my eggs in Crisco, I used butter - but your recipe is good! The way the recipe is written is unclear and should be corrected - the lime juice, of course, is in t..." See morehe salsa, NOT in the eggs! I had pico de gallo I had made previously, so this came together quickly. This was an interesting and very flavorful omelet. I like the Mexican flair to it with the avocado and Monterey Jack in the omelet and the fresh salsa topping. This is a colorful and tasty breakfast omelet I'd expect to find on a restaurant menu. I couldn't do this for breakfast every day as this is very rich - something to refer to as an occasional treat."
