  • 2-3 tablespoons chopped scallions (green onion)
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • Dash of Tabasco sauce

We recommend you get your ingredients ready before you start cooking. Once you're ready, here are the steps to making this delicious recipe

How to Make

  • Step 1: In a small bowl, mix avocado, sour cream, chilies, green onion, lemon juice, and Tabasco. Set aside.

  • Step 2: Preheat oven to 325-degrees F.

  • Step 3: Mix eggs with salt until blended. Melt butter in a 7 - 8 inch omelet pan. Add half the tortilla pieces and cook until soft. Pour in half the eggs and cook for 2 - 3 minutes, lifting eggs to allow un-cooked mixture to flow underneath. Do not cook firm; eggs must be very soft, for they will continue to cook in the oven. Sprinkle the top with cheese. Spread half the avocado filling over half the omelet. Place pan in oven and bake for 5 - 7 minutes or until cheese is melted. (Keep an eye on it because every oven is different and you don't want to over cook it). Fold in half to form into an omelet. Repeat for second omelet.
