Leftovers Breakfast Idea: Tex-Mex Omelette

Okay, so this dish doesn’t look like much. Admittedly, it kind of fell apart in the pan on me. Probably a little too much filling. But hey, it was breakfast, I was half-asleep and I was very hungry. I didn`t care how it looked, so long as it tasted good.

And it really did.

The point of sharing this? That breakfast doesn’t have to take a lot to throw together. Just grab some leftovers from the night before, fry ’em up and throw in the egg to make an omelette out of it. For this one, I used some of the leftover fajita filling, a bit more seasoning (for the egg) and a bit of cheese. You could take it a step further and serve this with salsa and sour cream on the side, too, depending on how spicy the meat mixture is, your tastes, etc.

Frankly, I was too hungry to get that fancy.

And despite it looking like the dog’s dinner, it was very, very tasty and satisfying.

What do you put in your omelettes? I’m always looking for new ideas!

Taco/Fajita Crescent Roll Wreath

Sometimes, you want a certain taste or dish, but you don’t want it done the “same old way”, right? I was feeling that way about fajitas and tacos. I love them, don’t get me wrong, but I was wanting them done up some other way. I considered a casserole version but then I poked around online and saw a recipe for a cheese, broccoli and chicken stuffed wreath made out of crescent roll dough and thought, “Ah ha! This is what I’m looking for!”

Also, just a note:  I have a tendency of using fajita seasoning instead of taco seasoning, even when we’re having tacos. It’s a personal preference. Use your own. 🙂

Here’s what I did:
