Crab, Onion, and Swiss Omelet

This is a fast breakfast recipe. I am always on the look-out for something other than cereal for breakfast that doesn't take much prep work or time. This one was a nice, tasty alternative to boring cereal or eggs and toast.




Crab, Onion, and Swiss Omelet:

1/2 cup diced imitation crab or lump crab meat, picked free of shells
2 Tablespoons minced onion
1 slice Swiss cheese
2 eggs
2 Tablespoons water
salt and pepper to taste
1 Tablespoon olive oil

1. Heat a small skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil. Saute the onions in the oil for about 30 seconds then add the crab meat.
2. Cook crab until heated through, then transfer from pan into a small bowl, set aside.
3. Return pan to the heat. Beat the eggs and water, seasoning with salt and pepper and add to skillet.
4. Rotate the pan in a circle over the heat so that the eggs stick to the upper edges of the pan.
5. When eggs are set, place the slice of cheese on one side of the skillet and then layer the crab/onion mixture on top of the cheese, spreading it out so it covers one half of the eggs.
6. Fold half of the eggs over onto it's self, covering the ingredients.
7. Slide omelet out of pan onto a plate and serve hot.


This is great with avocado slices as a garnish on top of the omelet. Enjoy!
