Fajita Omelet
I happened to discover this recipe for the fajita omelet by accident, I had leftover vegetables from fajitas that we had for dinner the night before and thought “why the heck not”. That was the day history was made because this has been one of my favorite ways to enjoy an omelet for a year now. This is perfect for a breakfast, lunch or dinner.
With the eggs, black beans and cheese: this fajita omelet is packed with protein. It’s filling, and satisfies my hunger for all three major meals of the day.
