How to Make Mexican Taco Omelet

  1. Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and lightly spray with cooking spray.
  2. In a bowl, whisk together the 3 large eggs until light and frothy.
  3. Pour the eggs into the preheated skillet and cook for about 30 seconds, or until the edges begin to set.
  4. Sprinkle the chopped green bell pepper and onion evenly over the eggs.
  5. Top with the shredded chicken.
  6. Sprinkle the crushed tortilla chips over the chicken.
  7. Cook for another 2-3 minutes, or until the eggs are almost set but still slightly moist on top.
  8. Carefully lift one edge of the omelet with a spatula to check if it’s cooked through. If it is, gently fold the omelet in half.
  9. Using a spatula, carefully slide the omelet onto a plate.
  10. Immediately sprinkle with the crumbled queso fresco while the omelet is still hot.
  11. Spread the salsa evenly over the top of the omelet.
  12. Roll up the omelet and serve immediately. Enjoy!
