Get ready to enhance your regular omelette by adding sauteed peppers, sauteed onions, cheese, and seasoned shredded chicken. Serve it with sour cream, guacamole, fresh lime, cilantro, and/or hot sauce.


I had some leftovers from a chicken fajita dinner and decided to put them to use in my breakfast the next morning. When I make this again, I would add black beans, salsa, and try different types of cheese.


You could make this into a stuffed omelette instead of placing all the toppings on top, but either way it all ends up in your bite!
