How to cook it

Cooking cue

Cook eggs just until set so they stay tender instead of rubbery.

  1. Set a large skillet or saute pan over medium to medium-high heat and keep the ingredients close so the cooking stays fast and even.
  2. 1. Prepare guacamole if making from scratch by mashing avocado with lime juice, hot sauce, salt, and a pinch of chili powder.
  3. 2. Whisk eggs with chili powder, Spike seasoning, salt, and pepper in a bowl.
  4. 3. Lightly coat an 8-9 inch skillet with olive oil or cooking spray and warm over low heat for about 1 minute.
  5. 4. Pour half the egg mixture into the pan and cook for 3 minutes until the bottom is well set, lifting the edge with a spatula to check.
  6. 5. Sprinkle 2 tablespoons cheese over the entire surface and cook 1-2 minutes more until the cheese begins melting.
  7. 6. Spread 2 tablespoons guacamole over one half of the omelet and let cook 1 minute.
  8. 7. Fold the plain side over the guacamole-covered side, cover the pan, and cook 3-5 minutes until cooked through.
  9. Cook eggs just until set so they stay tender instead of rubbery.
  10. 8. Transfer to a plate with a wide spatula, top with salsa, and repeat the process for the second omelet.
  11. Taste and adjust the seasoning at the end, then serve while everything is hot or freshly chilled.
