Fill a fluffy 2-egg omelette with leftover chili, fresh cheese and your favorite accompaniments for healthy, filling breakfast or breakfast for dinner. This is quintessential comfort food (or hangover food -- just sayin').

Ingredients
- 2 large eggs
- prinkle kosher salt
- ¾ cup leftover chili I used vegetarian black bean chili
- ⅓ cup crumbled or grated cheese I used Cotija but also try queso fresco, shredded cheddar or monterey jack
OPTIONAL GARNISHES:
- 2-3 lices avocado
- 2 teaspoons diced red onion
- diced green chiles preferably Hatch
- 2 teaspoons sliced green onion
- fresh cilantro leaves
- diced tomatoes
- sour cream
Instructions
- Add the eggs and salt to a blender. Secure the lid and run the blender at its highest speed for 3 minutes.
- Place the skillet on the stove with the setting on very low and let the pan heat for 45 seconds. Spray the pan liberally with nonstick cooking spray.
- Pour the just blended eggs gently into the center of the pan and let them cook for 30-45 seconds without moving the pan. Turn the heat up to medium and swirl the eggs around in the pan to evenly coat the bottom.
- When the eggs are 80% cooked, use a spatula to gently flip them and cook for an additional 20-30 seconds. Remove from heat.
- Transfer the omelette to a plate and fill one half of the omelette with about half of the chili, cheese, onions and scallions. Fold the empty side of the omelette over the chili and other fillings and top with the remainder of the chili, onions, Cotija, cilantro and avocado. Serve immediately.
