Nacho Omelette
Easy Nacho Omelette recipe. The perfect breakfast idea to use up a couple of eggs in the morning.
Is my nacho obsession getting out of hand?
First it was the Easy Nachos. Then we had the Nacho Quesadillas, a personal favourite. Now, I'm on to Nacho Omelettes.
And trust me when I say, this one is the best yet.
When me and John moved to Chicago (that must have been what? 11 days ago?), we were SHOCKED at how cheap eggs are here!
In Canada, we would buy at least 3 cartons of eggs when we saw them on sale for $2. But here? The store around the corner sells a carton of eggs for $0.69 as their regular price.
REGULAR PRICE LESS THAN $1???
Looks like we will be eating a LOT of eggs from now on!
And a lot of these egg creations we will be making will most likely be this Nacho Omelette.
This omelette is so dang good that I kept making it on a daily basis for 1 week straight.
Now that may have been because I opened a very large can of sliced black olives that needed using. But a main reason really is that this is extremely tasty.
(also, did I mention how cheap eggs are??)
What you need to make this Nacho Omelette
You don't need much at all! All you need is:
- ghee (or oil or butter)

This omelette can really be eaten at any time of the day, be it breakfast, lunch, dinner...

And with the dollop of guacamole on top that is optional, but not really that optional? You will fall in love with this meal, I pinky promise!

This is so so good. I love regional flavors a lot. Nacho inspired omelet sounds delicious!
I can't get enough of this flavour!!
This sounds like one crazy omellete idea which I loved. The crunchy nachos inside the Omelette are great fun.
Aren't they?? I love making fun omelette ideas 🙂
I love omelets for weekend brunch. This one looks like a really fun spin on the classic, especially with the crunch from the tortilla chips!
Yes! Weekends aren't the same without omelets 🙂
Haha that ARE cheap eggs! But coming from Norway I guess most groceries are cheaper in the US. But that does not stop me from having eggs all the time (did I mention Norwegian eggs are the best?). This nacho omelette looks so scrumptious and I need to make it asap!
I would LOVE to try Norwegian eggs! I would probably pay premium on them 😉
Thanks!
This sounds so good! I could eat it for breakfast, dinner, or lunch!
Same!! Thanks Elena! 🙂
This sounds amazing. A great twist on a breakfast omelette.
Yes!! Or any time of the day really 🙂
This looks so good. I’m a sucker for a good omelette and I love the flavour combinations you’ve come up with here.
Me too!! It is one of the dishes I make most often 😉
I love eggs, omelets and nachos. I think I must make this dish, it's calling my name.
It is such a great combo. Thanks!!
We have chickens and love eggs any time of the day! We will be having this for taco Tuesday!
I hope you do. Thanks!!
