1 t lemon zext

**A few weeks ago, Hans and I were in Austin and had one of the best omelets of our lives. Magnolia Cafe....recommended by Triple D (That's Diners, Drive Ins and Dives on Food Network).  I can't remember what was inside, for sure avocado and cheese, but other than that, it was the 3 sauces on top that stole the show.  A red salsa, a salsa verde and the lemon sour cream sauce. We didn't go back for lunch or dinner, (just breakfast again the next day) but apparently it is on their famous enchiladas as well.  So in true Hans and Traci style, we created our own.  Hans googled and researched and I think he got it pretty darn close.  So now, make an omelet and top it with Ranchero Sauce, Costco's Kicking Lizard's Tomatilla Salsa and this Lemon Sour Cream....heaven! I'll let you know how it is on the enchiladas one of these days!
