After watching Chef Willy cook up an omelet with rice for Lance on The Lane Chronicles, I haven't been able to eat enough of it. This one is fresh basil/kalamata olive/feta with long grain. YUMMM!

I just don't understand why anyone would want to eat something savory like an omelet and rice WITH bread and honey, which is what he said Lance likes for breakfast.

That's funny. For all of the P(h)ilipinos out there on this board, that breakfast is as common as pancakes and eggs at Denny's. The only thing missing is the ketchup. ;)

Nice!

[update] The Pilipino version uses sticky rice, as in Sushi and Chinese food. And yes, I was serious about the ketchup.

Just because he eats it does not mean he wants to eat it. But training diets are not for fun, rather for fuel, and Lance can choke it down. He has to pack a LOT of calories in, and digesting that amount of food means being careful.

Eggs and rice, breakfast in much of Asia. Yum!

Ketchup takes a close second to Jafran/Mafran banana ketchup! with eggs and rice!!

Am I going to have to make another one for dinner? My favorite version is a thai omelet with onions and ground pork, topped with Sriracha rooster sauce, fish sauce, and cilantro. Jasmine rice, of course. Dayam I'm hungry!

with both the katsup and the rooster sauce...though not at the same time, and the rooster is pretty spicy unless that's your thing... Also, the rice is a great idea, but even better when you get some leftover rice and cook it into the omelette with some cheese. MMMMMMM.

Ooooooooh...what kind of cheese [salivating]?

My favorite omelete is tomato and white onion with just a splash of patis! Bacon on the side!

But growing up in the 70s in SoCal, we didn't always have the luxury of the local Pilipino store until the early 80s. We quickly ran out of Jafran/Mufran (because we had the same breakfast for dinner, of course!) and good ol' ketchup was the proverbial stand in.
