I just loved this for breakfast this morning, I used 2 medium eggs and Jalsberg cheese and followed through with recipe but served with wholemeal/wholegrain toasted bread (sorry bagels are no no for me - though you can't get them anyway in my part of Australia) but next time I will only have 1 slice of toast as I was really battling to get through with 2. Thank you petlover, made for Aussie/Kiwi recipe swap #48 January 2011.

This was such a yummy breakfast! I sometimes can be scared off when it comes to making omlettes because I somehow build them up in my head to be more difficult to do then they have to be . This recipe is an example of how it can actually be very easy to make a really tasty omlette. I used reduced fat swiss cheese and that worked really well with the eggs. I used onion and poppy seed bagels and sprinkled my omelettes with a bit of dried parsley for presentation and they were really good that way. Made for PAC Spring 2008.

I love swiss cheese but never thought of using it with eggs. What a GREAT combination. You can't go wrong with this simple and very tasty breakfast. I loved biting into the egg and getting that lovely ooey-gooey melted swiss. Thanks for sharing this winner, petlover.

Very nice, simple way to enjoy eggs in the morning! Instead of salt & pepper I used a bit of lemon pepper which has that & more in it! Very tasty on a fresh, whole wheat bagel! [Made & reviewed for one of my adoptees in this Spring's Pick-A-Chef]
