Spaghetti Omelette

Spaghetti Omelette
Spaghetti Omelette is the reason why a lot of people visit the tea shops (known as cafeterias) of Hausa men in some towns in Cameroon. We always keep leftover spaghetti to make this the next morning. This meal just takes eggs to the next level and it is unbelievably easy to make!

Spaghetti (or superghetti…lol), how we love thee! We love that you give us endless options for quick satisfying meals like spaghetti shrimp dinner or quick spaghetti in tomato sauce or even this spaghetti omelette that could pass for a frittata! Oh, how we love that we could have you for breakfast buried in an omelette!

You guys, pasta for breakfast? Count us IN! Especially when the pasta is cooked into a luscious omelette with fresh veggies, crispy on the outside, eggy on the side and just irresistible especially if you turn it into a Spaghetti Omelette Sandwich!

This spaghetti omelette is one of the reasons we love that we grew up in Cameroon! Cameroonians just know how to mix things together to make notable food. Just imagine egg and spaghetti coming together for breakfast! And we tell you, they are a match made in culinary heaven!

This recipe! Make it then make it again! Keep leftover spaghetti to make this. Boil some spaghetti just to make this. Make it for your family and friends. Make it for breakfast, brunch or dinner. Ready in under 30 minutes! Check out the video, below!
