I am not a good omelet maker but I succeded with this one. Herbie is FABULOUS! As written this would be a huge omelet. I halved the recipe and it was still enough to split. I used fresh grated parmesean, romano & mozzarella because I had them all on hand. The mixture of herbs is delightful with the cheeses. Sweetie couldn't figure out the tarragon but he loved it. This would be lovely with a glass of champagne on a lazy Sunday morning. Thanks Hey Jude for posting an omelet that sounded SO good that I had to give omelet making another try. :-)
