Smoked Salmon Omelet with Everything Bagel Seasoning.
A local supermarket occasionally has smoked salmon scraps at a steep discount, which inspired the Smoked Salmon Omelet with Everything Bagel Seasoning. The salmon pieces are too lumpy to serve on a bagel, but work fine chopped in an omelet. Add other familiar ingredients of a lox+bagel+schmear and you have a pretty decent breakfast, which you can serve on a sliced bagel if you wish. Makes 1 serving.
Ingredients:
2 large eggs
Milk
Salt and pepper to taste
2 oz smoked salmon, chopped into 3/4 inch pieces
2 oz cream cheese, chopped into 3/4 inch pieces
2 T green or red onions, chopped
1 T capers
1 t everything bagel seasoning (Trader Joe or equivalent), plus more for garnish
1 T butter
Method: beat eggs with a splash of milk, a generous pinch of salt and a bit of pepper until ingredients are loosely incorporated. Heat butter to a sizzle in a non stick omelet pan and pour in egg. As it starts to solidify, add cream cheese, onion, capers and everything seasoning. When the omelet begins to set, fold it over on itself then flip onto a plate. Add more everything seasoning as a garnish.
