Light Italian Feta Omelet
"I was in the mood for an omelet (love omelets!) and also wanted to use up some ingredients that I had on hand. I came up with this yummy omelet that has the delicious flavors of eggs, tomatoes, basil and feta cheese. Measurements are an approximation...you can use more or less to your liking."

This was excellent! I didn't have fresh basil so omitted it this time. -
Very tasty combination of ingredients! I used 2 eggs in place of the egg substitute and some garlic feta. Mmm! Great quick breakfast. Thanks Crafty Lady! Made for ZWT 4. -
Easy, simple and full of taste. This was a great way to use up my extra feta. I used my "tube" basil and mixed it with the tomato and feta before putting it in the omelet. This worked just fine. Thanks! I'll keep this on hand! -
Very tasty breakfast. I used a combination of egg substitute combined with a whole egg. The tomato was small and was sliced instead of chopping. Really enjoyed the burst of flavors from the sweet tomato combined with the fresh basil and feta. Additional basil was sprinkled over the top for garnish. Made for *ZWT 4* -
Yum! What a great different omelet. IMO the basil really makes this omelet. The saltiness of the feta with the sweetness of the tomato blends together with the pungent basil flavour. There's something about hot tomatoes that I love, and am so glad to have more recipes that use tomatoes in warm dishes. Thanks for such a delish recipe! Reviewed for ZWT 4.

<p>Update: I have changed my profile picture in honor of my dear best friend and loyal companion that I lost to cancer on 6/25/11. Maxx was the best dog that anyone could ever hope to have in their life. Until we meet again, sweet boy, you will be forever in my heart and memories. I currently live in the country with two dogs (a 12 pound poodle mix named Suki and a new member to the family, a 7-month old(?) 7.5 pound terrier mix named Angel ). I got Angel from the dog pound a week after I lost my beloved Maxx. Suki and I both needed a new companion to help us cope with our loss. Nothing will ever replace Maxx, but she has helped to uplift Suki's spirit. I am a secretary for a county school board. I love to cook, bake, crochet, paint, sew, read and anything to do with crafts. I was born in Tokyo,Japan. My father was in the Air Force and my moher was Japanese. I love to cook (and eat) a variety of foods from many different nations. I especially like trying out new recipes and experimenting with both old and new recipes. I also love participating in the great Zaar events like the tag games, recipe swaps, and Zaar World Tours. I recently participated in my first RSC contest. I have definitely had a lot of fun since joining Recipezaar. Update - September 20, 2007 I am proud to announce that I have just been blessed with my first grandchild. My son and daughter-in-law have given me a beautiful little granddaughter.
