I really loved this method for making omelets!!! It cooks the eggs evenly on both sides. I scaled this back to serve one and used my small skillet, which I first cooked the veggies, then put them aside and added the egg mixture. I omitted the mushrooms and tomatoes for our tastes and what I had on hand. Will definitely continue to use this method for all our omelets. Thanks for sharing the recipe. Made for Spring PAC 2014.
