I LOVE this recipe. I don't know that I would call it an omelet - it is a little more quiche-like, but whatever you call it, it's amazing. As noted, it definitely is not for two, more like four, but it makes great leftovers. I've made this for dinner and breakfast/brunch and it works equally well. It’s yummy with a side salad and a baguette. I typically add a little more of the veggies than called for (though I have left out the jalapeño on occasion, and an extra egg. I would highly recommend using high quality, thick-cut bacon, and taking it easy on the salt. Bacon is pretty salty, so it is easy to over salt this dish. Another fantastic recipe from Ina! I've made this countless times since discovering it, and will continue to keep in my recipe rotation.

I love this recipe. Such an easy and impressive brunch dish when having a small group of company- it can be doubled or tripled easily. I made it without bacon or jalapenos, and you can certainly play with the veggies included!

This recipe always feels like a treat to eat. My mom has made it for the family multiple times so I thought I'd give it a try last week. It went off without a hitch. I didn't change anything from the recipe except for the cheese. I used shredded cheese instead of cubed as it was faster and it turned out just fine. I'll have to try cubed cheese next time. The recipe says for two, but it's fed more than four people in my family in the past, and we were quite stuffed after dividing it in thirds this last time. I just served it it with individual fruit salads for dinner and there was a bit left over on our plates. Lastly, I think I will try to reduce the portion of salt added next time as it tasted a bit too salty to me, but I think that's because the bacon adds a good dose of salty flavor to the dish by itself.

Great recipe. Perfect dinner too when you come home late. Filling but not stuffed. Easy to keep ingredients on hand too. I didnt have a jalapeno so I used canned puree from chillis in adobo that I had..about 3tsp. So wonderful with a kick. The house smells great also. Anyone can make this, its that simple!

I have made this many times. It is fantastic when reheated the next day. I also love that I can eat it and feel full but not like I can't move after I eat it. I make this whenever I have a bunch of friends over for a brunch. Total success everytime :

I used breakfast sausage instead of bacon and added sauteed mushrooms, but it still turned out great. I will definitely do it again!

It was good, but it's not an omelet for two, maybe four. Had the throw the rest of it out.

Wonderful~ I halved the recipe and didn't use jalapeno and scallions only because I didn't have any, but it still came out great! :D If you want to halve this recipe, just use three eggs instead of two [that's what I did]. Oh I also didn't have a pan that was able to go into to oven, so I used a pie pan. Came out amazingly and was a wonderful dinner with a small salad. Love you barefoot <3~
