Ingredients

Directions

  1. In a small bowl, combine the Heinz 'n Onions with the drained chopped green chilies; set aside.
  2. In a separate medium bowl, beat the eggs, water, salt, and pepper with a fork until fully blended and frothy.
  3. Heat butter or margarine in a 10-inch skillet over medium heat until it sizzles and turns lightly brown.
  4. Pour the egg mixture into the skillet all at once.
  5. Cook slowly, running a spatula around the edges and tilting the pan to allow uncooked egg to flow underneath.
  6. Once the eggs are mostly set but still slightly moist on top, fold the omelet in half.
  7. Slide the omelet onto a plate and cut into pie-shaped wedges.
  8. Top each serving with 2 tablespoons of the ketchup and onion mixture before serving.
