Omelets for BREAKFAST

My favorite thing to do on a Saturday morning is to cook  an Omelet. BREAKFAST is my favorite meal of the day! Once you have mastered the technique, they are so simple and versatile , my ingredients vary based on whats in my fridge. Great way to use up anything that needs to be used quickly . 

Once you decide what ingredients you would like to fill your omelet, you will dice them up and saute them until fully cooked. Set aside to fill your omelet before folding. Lighter ingredients( fresh herbs, seasonings) can be added to the egg mixture. 

In a non stick skillet over medium heat, melt a pat of butter and add your well beaten eggs. As the eggs begin to set, use your spatula to push in the edges allowing the uncooked egg to flow to the outer edges of the pan. Once egg is almost cooked add your filling. 

There are two original methods that you can use to make an omelet, rolled(French ) and folded . ( I have two shortcut ways, Ill post later !)  

Folded Method is easier for beginners. Follow process as stated above . Add filling to one half of the omelet, and fold the other half on top. Viola!

A. Smoked Sausage, Tomatoes, Bell Pepper,
Onion, Jalapeno, Colby Jack Cheese (FOLDED)

B. Turkey Sausage,Spinach, Bell Peppers
Cheese (ROLLED)

Rolled ( French) Method is a little more tricky. Imagine your omelet in thirds. Your filling will go in the middle third. Fold the right third  over the middle, then gently coax the left third on to the plate. You can then use the pan to fold the rest of the omelet on to the plate. Garnish with filling.
