This breakfast omelet is really filling and you really don’t need to serve it with anything else.
Ingredients Needed For Jalapeno Popper Stuffed Omelet:
- Cream cheese– makes the omelet so creamy and rich.
- Cooked and crumbled bacon– I like to cook it in my air fryer. So quick and easy and it gets perfectly crispy.
- Minced jalapeno– either fresh or canned. If using fresh, you may want to microwave or saute the minced jalapeno briefly to prevent it from being crunchy in the omelet.
- Cheddar Cheese– either freshly grated or pre-shredded.
- Eggs
- Heavy cream
- Butter
- Salt and Pepper
If the omelet isn’t spicy enough for you, serve it with hot sauce.

Recipe Notes
If you want to use fresh jalapeno, either saute it briefly in bacon grease or microwave it until soft. Otherwise it will be crunchy.
