1
Prepare the Ingredients
Chop the onion and bell pepper into small pieces. Remove the casing from the chorizo and crumble it into small bits.
2
Cook the Chorizo
In a non-stick skillet over medium heat, add the crumbled chorizo. Cook for about 5-7 minutes until it is browned and cooked through. Remove the chorizo and set aside, leaving any drippings in the skillet.
3
Sauté the Vegetables
In the same skillet, add the chopped onion and bell pepper. Sauté for 3-4 minutes until they become soft and translucent.
4
Make the Omelet
In a bowl, whisk the eggs until well blended. Pour the eggs into the skillet over the sautéed vegetables. Let it cook for 1-2 minutes, gently pushing the edges toward the center as it cooks.
5
Add Chorizo and Cheese
Once the eggs are mostly set, evenly distribute the cooked chorizo and sprinkle the cheddar cheese over one half of the omelet. Fold the other half over the filling and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until the cheese melts.
6
Serve the Omelet
Carefully slide the omelet onto a plate and set aside while you prepare the sides.

7
Cook the Fries
Prepare the frozen fries according to package instructions, typically baking in the oven or frying until golden and crispy.
8
Toast the Bread
While the fries are cooking, toast the slices of bread until golden brown.
9
Plate the Dish
Once the fries are done and the bread is toasted, serve the omelet alongside the fries and toast.
