POTATO AND CHORIZO OMELET WITH A KINDA PARSLEY SALAD
Steps:
- This omelet is a cross between a Spanish tortilla and an Italian frittata. It's Spanish because of the chorizo and potato, but a little Italian too because I like to finish it off in the oven instead of on the burner, so it puffs up like a souffle. It has all the things I love in it - potatoes, sausage and eggs.
- Preheat your oven to high, or get your broiler nice and hot. Put the potatoes into a saucepan of boiling salted water and simmer them until cooked, then drain in a colander and leave to steam dry. Beat the eggs with a fork in a large mixing bowl, season well with salt and pepper, and set aside.
- Heat a 7 or 8-inch nonstick, ovenproof frying pan. Add the chorizo slices and the potato chunks. The chorizo will start to sizzle, releasing all its tasty oils and spices. After a couple of minutes, when everything's lightly golden and crisp, remove from the pan with a slotted spoon and set aside. Sprinkle the rosemary leaves into the hot fat. As soon as they hit the pan, they'll start to crisp up immediately pour the beaten eggs on top, adding the potatoes and chorizo and spreading everything out evenly. Place the whole pan in the preheated oven or under the broiler until the omelet is golden brown on top and just cooked through in the middle.
- While the omelet is cooking, put the shallots into a bowl with the lemon juice, some salt and pepper and a glug of extra-virgin olive oil. Toss and pinch the shallots with your fingertips to soften them slightly, and then mix in the parsley leaves. Serve a little on top of the omelet and tuck in!

POTATO AND CHORIZO CASSEROLE
I love the smoky flavor chorizo gives this dish, but I've also made it with Italian sausage and substituted an Italian blend cheese for the Mexican cheese. Or you can use cream of mushroom soup and fresh mushrooms for a vegetarian option. -Ana Beteta, Aberdeen, Maryland

GREEN CHILE TORTILLA SCRAMBLE
This was a favorite among our guests at the bed and breakfast where I cooked for many years. If you wish, add sautéed onions or diced tomatoes to the mix. I sometimes serve this dish with pinto or black beans and a warmed flour tortilla. This dish also lends itself well to be served with a side of chorizo sausage or any other breakfast meat of your liking.

Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients: The better the quality of your ingredients, the better your omelet will be. Use fresh, organic vegetables, and high-quality cheese and chorizo.
- Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking the omelet, make sure not to overcrowd the pan. This will prevent the eggs from cooking evenly and will make it more difficult to flip the omelet.
- Cook the omelet over medium heat: Cooking the omelet over medium heat will help prevent the eggs from burning and will allow the omelet to cook evenly throughout.
- Flip the omelet carefully: When flipping the omelet, be careful not to break it. Use a spatula to gently loosen the edges of the omelet and then flip it over in one quick motion.
- Season the omelet to taste: Once the omelet is cooked, season it to taste with salt, pepper, and other desired spices.
