spanish omelet - my version
You know that moment of panic/dread/disgust that happens around four o'clock each afternoon? Food panic. I'm usually pretty good about keeping a weekly menu to avoid such calamities. Yes, I am one of THOSE people who actually makes a menu - but only to avoid calamities. One little problem...
Mr. W does the grocery shopping - at least he did while he was home for eight months. Now he's gone and I suck at grocery shopping. After the woe is me episode passed, I said to myself, "Self, get a grip! Grow up! Cook something!"
This is my emergency, use what you have, very delicious recipe for a Spanish omelet.

Heat a skillet with a little olive oil swirled around the bottom.
Add your egg mixture.
Spread the cheese and other ingredients across half of the eggs.
Once the bottom has firmed up a bit, fold in half.
Tip: Two spatulas do the job better than one!
I top it off with a little more cheese, salsa, and sour cream.
What does one drink with a dinner omelet?
Milk? Coffee? Blue Moon with a slice of orange?
That looks amazing, yum!
ReplyDeleteYum! And a glass of red wine! :)
ReplyDelete.....Blue Moon....I'll take one please!
ReplyDeleteOk...looks good...but what on earth is a blue moon?!

Ah, Jenni, they must not have Blue Moon in Australia. My condolences. It's a delicious beer that's made even more delicious by adding a slice of orange.
ReplyDeleteThat's beautiful!! Looks delicious and also looks like you had intended to create something fancy all along... no one would have known the difference! :) *Ice cold milk :)))
ReplyDeleteDon't feel badly, Jenni. I live less than five miles from Mrs. Waterstone and I had no clue what Blue Moon was, either. Apparently I am poorly schooled with it comes to beers. But then, my answer for the drink would have been a tall glass of milk.
ReplyDeleteI'm loving these answers! I actually had a tall glass of cold milk...then later had a glass of wine. :)
ReplyDeleteMs. Wenzel, clearly we should enjoy a Blue Moon together.
Blue moon with the orange for sure ~ gotta get all of those fruit and vegi servings in each day :)
ReplyDeleteEvery night is a dinner panic night at my house. I will add this to the list, looks better than plain old scrambled eggs.
ReplyDeleteLooks delicious!
ReplyDeleteHow about a Mimosa!
ReplyDeleteThat looks amazingly good - YUM! Can I come over when you cook that again :) Have a good one!
ReplyDeleteBarbara! Mimosa!! Where was my brain? It's breakfast. It's brunch. It's dinner. I will have champagne on hand next time I do this.
ReplyDeleteGosh, this looks so good Lori!
ReplyDeleteIf I were having this in the morning, I am sure it would be coffee, but for dinner? Definitely a glass of wine.
