Mr. MacGyver Creates an Omelette!

Mr. MacGyver Makes an Omelette!

Before we left Dallas, a friend shared that she had received a Raclette as a Christmas present. I had never heard of this kitchen appliance, but was intrigued. When I happened to see that a local person was selling a 220 volt raclette on Facebook Marketplace, I arranged to purchase it and friends picked it up.

Our raclette is a small 2 person appliance and lightweight enough to bring in our luggage. A colleague sourced a Solomons-friendly power cord which arrived yesterday with some other deliveries. Last night we had some melted cheese on the appliance and it worked great!

This morning, inspired by our new ‘kitchen tool’, Mr. MacGyver decided to try making us an omelette. An ambitious challenge, but of course well into quarantine, he was up for the challenge!

Steps:

scramble and egg
grate cheese and avocado
pour egg on griddle
add cheese and avocado
cook and fold
Enjoy!

For next time: We melted 2 spoons together to create a spatula.

: scramble egg

: slice cheese/avocado

: pour egg on grill

: add cheese

: add avocado

: cook/fold over

: enjoy!

Thanks,Lora, We can order from the hotel restaurant as well, but the meals tend to be pretty carb-heavy and veggie-light, not to mention the expense. It’s been fun to try and think of things we could make on our own. Colleagues have helped deliver orders of groceries, which have made this all possible!

Thanks,Lora. Ordering from the hotel restaurant is a possibility, but the meals tend to be a bit carb-heavy and veggie-light, so we have tried to find other alternatives that are healthy and save us some money. Colleagues have sent in groceries which has made the ‘cooking’ possible and they have provided a few homemade meals as well. We are grateful.
