Steps:
- In a small pan heat chili, and keep warm.
- Make sure all your ingredients are ready before you begin.
- Season 3-4 beaten eggs with salt and pepper.
- Melt a small amount of butter or margarine in a small nonstick skillet.
- Add in a little onion and jalapeno and saute for a few minutes (this can be skipped if you desire).
- Add eggs all at once and swirl around pan, scraping and tilting edges to cook evenly.
- When just slightly moist on top, place about 1/2 cup warm chili along half of the eggs and top with some shredded cheese, and additional onions and jalapenos, if desired.
- Gently fold omelet over to form semicircle.
- Slide onto serving plate and top with a spoon of chili and more cheese for presentation.
- Repeat with ingredients and 3-4 eggs per omelette.
PARMALET (CRISP PARMESAN OMELET)
I was attempting to achieve a crispy, inside-out Parmesan omelet--and it worked! The caramelized cheese formed a thin but protective layer and, since the eggs had never directly touched the pan, they were moist and tender. This will also work whether you use one or three eggs, depending on the texture you're going for. Using a single egg is kind of a cool trick, since the cheese layer is almost as thick, and you can really appreciate the crispness even more.

Steps:
- Crack eggs into a mixing bowl. Add 1/4 teaspoon water. Whisk together until just beaten (do not overmix).
- Drizzle olive oil into 8-inch nonstick skillet. Brush evenly over the bottom of the pan. Evenly grate cheese into the skillet approximately 1/2-inch deep (or just shy of 1 ounce).
- Place pan over medium-high heat. Cheese will slowly start to melt. When cheese starts to bubble and turn golden brown, about 4 minutes, pour eggs evenly over cheese. Reduce heat to low. Sprinkle with salt, pepper, and cayenne. Cover and let eggs cook on low until they are set, checking after the first 30 seconds. For 2 eggs, this should take about 1 minute, total cooking time. Remove pan from heat. Carefully use a spatula to fold "parmalet" in half. Transfer to serving plate.

HAM AND SWISS OMELET
Steps:
- In a small nonstick skillet, melt butter over medium-high heat. Whisk the eggs, water, salt and pepper. Add egg mixture to skillet (mixture should set immediately at edges)., As eggs set, push cooked edges toward the center, letting uncooked portion flow underneath. When the eggs are set, place ham on one side and sprinkle with cheese; fold other side over filling. Slide omelet onto a plate.

HAM AND CHEESE OMELETTE
So easy and so good. I usually saute the ham before adding it to the omelette so it gets crispy and more flavorful.
