Oh my....such a light and airy omelette! My Mother used to make omelettes using this technique way back in the 60's...and have always loved them this way. I didn't have any mushrooms so just left them out. I used 8 eggs and it was just perfect for our family. Just one thing....I noticed in the directions you mention flour...however...in the ingredient list it is not there....so I just left it out. Will be making this again for sure. Thank you!

This one is a five for the simplicity and ease in making a weekend breakfast.Tastes like a five too! I hesitated when it came to the milk but went with the recipe and it combined well. Always find beating and folding in the egg whites makes for light and this one is light - a pleasure to serve. Toast and sliced tomatoes go well with this Omelette. Thank you for sharing a recipe we will be making again and again.

Just another crazy mother/wife that "manages" to work full time, care for 3 teens AND love to cook and bake!! I am constantly searching for recipes that are healthy, fast, fun and kid-friendly.
DH claims that I can NEVER follow a recipe without tweaking it. Sigh. I try really hard to include my tweaks when I write my reviews for all those other recipe tweakers. If my tweaks don't work then I will review your recipe without a rating and indicate my tweaks failure NOT the recipe!!!
Best kids comment: My kids asked for copies of all my recipes, so when they get married they can prepare them!
Pet Peeve: Reviewers that don't include comments on their reviews. Also, reviewers that are not fair when they give their reviews - if you have always hated carrots then please don't bother rating the carrot recipe!
