On halloween, I ventured to Hy-Vee for candy. While there, I scanned the vegetation and found cilantro. Along with approximately 4.5 pounds of candy, my purchase was made!
At work I decided that when I would get home it was going to be omelet time. It began with the cilantro. Separated from the stems, and torn into tiny pieces, it awaited its fate. The bacon was my next target. Three strips were placed upon the skillet and cooked to as close as I could get to perfection. A brick of sharp cheddar cheese was found in my fridge, by me. Last time using a knife to cut the cheese didn't go so well. The potato peeler I used this time seemed to do the trick. With one hand, I broke the mighty shell, and dripped the eggs into the beating cup, free of shell. After the embryonic tissue was removed, THE BEATING BEGAN!
Here are the ingredients.
They were broken after being cooked!
[This is pre-beatdown.]
Once all the pieces were assembled, the cooking commenced!
The cilantro was beaten to an eggy mixture. Poured into a hot, bacon grease covered pan, and cooked for a minute or so. Once the egg-lantro started to cook, the bacon and cheese was added. Shortly after that, the omelet took its final shape, folded. It was then cooked for another unknown amount of time with an unknown number of flips. Some sort of Ms/Mrs Dash herbs and garlic may have been added.
Once the battle was over, this is all that remained:
That's what it was like before I ate it. Twas pretty good tasting.
I learned that I should have more cheese, and possibly less cilantro. It wasn't quite too strong, but I think it was working on it. Also, more bacon would have been awesome.
Please, for your own sake, make omelets or something.
