This recipe is a classic chili dog wrapped up in an omelet!
If hot food is your thing, use raw jalapenos, sharp cheddar, spicy chili, hot hot sauce.
If not, you can tone it down as far as you like (skip the jalapenos, use regs chili, etc.); even in a mild form it will be delicious!
HANGOVER HOT DOG OMELET
A chili dog wrapped up in an omelet
Ingredients
- 2 eggs room temperature
- 1 doggie

- 6-8 slices pickled jalapenos, diced (raw is better, but use half the amount)
- generous grab of fine-shredded sharp cheddar

- Step 6 Let the eggs cook around the edge a bit.
- Step 7 With a wooden stick push the eggs away from the edge of the pan.
