    The Juggler is wise and he inspires me. He's like my Forrest Gump- if he runs I will follow.

    However, that is one badass omelette You're talking about. Chilli? Are you for real? I need to try one.

    It IS badass and highly recommended!

    And Jason =)
    Ok so your CHILI is homemade and you use leftovers? Can you use Chili from a can? I suppose that wouldn't be as good? I haven't made CHILI in a long time. And what kind of cheese do you use? Cheddar would probably work best. Or marble.

    Chedda! And I've only had it in diners, never homemade, but the chili is typically a nice balance of meat and beans.

    I love how CHILI is randomly in all-caps.

    I always love the idea of chilli but then every time I try it I can't eat it. Then I realize what I really love is stew.
    Chili with scrambled eggs sounds good.

    I wasn't capping it, it was auto-correcting that way.

    Mmm, meat and beans.....*drool*

    Delivery fees are not common, I've seen a few places that say $1-$3 depending on distance, so it's usually just for idiots that want to order food from 2+ miles away.

    Juggler's neighbor can make you a sandwich...I believe it's speedy that makes omelettes, though as pointed out, speedy's are technically fritattas because there is no gooey eggie goodness in the center.

    My neighbor was also in charge of breakfast. I just never went down there that early. Don't sell him short.


    A chili omelette?????? Tell me more

    Some put the chili, cheese and onions inside the omelet (makes for nice ooziness), but others simply smother the hell out of it.

    Just found out my favorite local diner who made them THE best just closed after over 50 years.

    I've made eggs with so many types of leftover food...yet I don't think I've ever gone down the chili road before.

    You best believe Your Juggler will try this out next time we have chili for dinner (which, now that I think of it, won't be for a while with the temperature heating up--damn it!)

    Is it like a poached egg, but still in its shell? Don't you have to remove the top and scoop it out?

    Pretty much, put it in the cup, and there are special scissors to cut the top off, and a special tiny spoon. Really great if you like gooey veggie goodness.

    Us regular folk just use a spoon to get the top of the shell off and use the same spoon to eat with :whistle:

    I haven't had a good soft-boiled egg in ages! No runniness, lots of salt and pepper. My mom made them perfectly; I haven't been able to master it.

    Those scissors look fancy. I like the chicken feet on the bottom of the "cups." How long do you boil a soft boiled egg?

    By my standards? No fucking idea =)

    I'll say though that the cups thing reminded me of the Peter Rabbit egg cups we had growing up. My sister still has them.

    SHE makes awesome soft-boiled eggs. That gene was apparently not passed down to me :angry:

    When I was real small my grandma used to make eggs in such a way that my brain can only interpret as egg soup. My mom (who was the daughter of that grandma) had no fucking idea what I was talking about.
    I've never learned what it was or ever had it since, but I've never forgotten it.

    Lol, I can't tell if you're being serious or not. I wasn't.

    I actually love soft boiled eggs. So I guess I like gooey eggie goodness after all. Just not in my Omelette.

    Diner I used to frequent had a chili n cheese omelette. Fixings on the inside. Delicious! Also had a fajita omelette. Peppers, onions, chicken, fresh avocado on top. Could have used a little more fajita seasoning but it was good.
