"I've adjusted this somewhat to suit out tastes. Choose ready-to-use sun-dried tomatoes from the produce section of your grocery store. They are more pliable than the dry kind that require rehydration. From 'WW 5-Ingredient-15 Minute Recipes" and = 6 points."

I liked your suggestion of using ready made sun dried tomatoes so I did. They made the dish so much nicer than ones in the oil. I also made a slight change to the recipe. I used the 2 eggs but also threw in 1 cup eggbeaters since I didn't want to hassle with egg whites. I mixed the dried herbs in the egg batter so they were part of the omelet and I finally found manchego cheese at Trader Joes in a Spanish Tapas package they were offering. Overall, fairly tasty but bland. Went well with the other tapas I was serving though so help to balance the flavors out a little.
