Ingredients:
- 3 large eggs
- 1 tablespoon milk
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 1 tablespoon butter or oil
- ¼ cup onion, finely chopped
- 1 small tomato, diced
- 1 small jalapeño, finely chopped (remove seeds for less heat)
- ¼ cup cooked black beans (optional)
- ¼ cup shredded cheddar or Mexican blend cheese
- 1 tablespoon fresh cilantro, chopped
- Salsa, avocado, and sour cream (for serving)
Instructions:
- Prepare the eggs: In a small bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper until smooth and well combined.
- Cook the vegetables: In a medium skillet, heat the butter or oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion, tomato, and jalapeño. Sauté for 3-4 minutes until the onion softens and the vegetables are slightly cooked down.
- Pour the eggs: Lower the heat to medium-low and pour the egg mixture over the sautéed vegetables. Let the eggs cook for about 2-3 minutes, using a spatula to lift the edges and allow any uncooked egg to flow underneath.
- Add the beans and cheese: When the eggs are mostly set but still a little runny on top, sprinkle the black beans (if using) and shredded cheese over one half of the omelette. Fold the omelette in half and continue cooking for another minute until the cheese is melted and the omelette is fully cooked through.
- Serve: Gently slide the omelette onto a plate and garnish with fresh cilantro. Serve with salsa, sliced avocado, and a dollop of sour cream on the side for an extra Mexican flair.
