I made this over the weekend and I fell in love with it! I already made it twice in a row! Yes, it was that good! I took the basic chili recipe that I use often which is ground beef, diced tomatoes, taco seasoning and laughing cow cheese. I used laughing cow cheese to make the chili creamier. You can also use reduced fat cream cheese. I mixed everything together and spread it on an omelet. Wrapped it up like a burrito and then topped it with chipotle salsa. It was delicious! My father always eats his eggs with picante sauce while others in my family eat their eggs with ketchup. I always thought they were crazy for ruining their eggs and ate my eggs plain with just salt and pepper. Now I know I have been missing out all those years! Eggs taste so yummy with salsa, especially chipotle salsa! Give this recipe a try for a little variety. Enjoy the recipe!
Creamy, yummy chili inside!
