Directions
Heat half of the olive oil in a non stick pan on medium-high heat and add the butter. When the pan is hot and the butter melted, add the salmon fillet. Cook the fillet for 5 minutes on each side until pink in the middle. Set it aside.
Take the cream cheese and add the shredded Monterrey jack cheese. Stir until mixed well. When the salmon is cook, flake it with your fingers and add it to the cream cheese mix. Stir until mixed, but still with lumps of salmon. You want the lump salmon in there so it’s not just liquidy. Is liquidy even a word?
Spray a 10 inch sauce pan with butter flavor cooking spray. Put half the egg mix into the pan an swirl it around so the bottom of the pan is coated. After 2-3 minutes, flip your egg over. Spoon half the salmon mix on one half of the egg then slide it onto a plate, folding the other half over it. Top sour cream, salsa or just have it plain. I topped mine with a sauce that was 1 Tablespoon sour cream and a teaspoon of brown mustard. Simple but tasty.

How did you know that this is our favorite egg. I often use smoked salmon instead of cooking a piece of salmon first. Either way, it is delicioius.
Yummy! I love salmon and this sounds really good!
I used to have an omelette like this when I lived in NYC… thanks for sharing it with us on foodie friday.
Delicious! Thank you so much for sharing at last week’s All My Bloggy Friends 🙂 I can’t wait to see what you share this week!
That is a creative way to serve salmon. I’ve not thought about putting it in an omelet. Sounds like it would be yummy.
