This was a good recipe, it was a little bland so I added a spoonful of salsa ontop which really helped a lot. Will probably make again

Very nice and colorful omelette! I enjoyed the addition of the corn/pepper relish. I copied Sharon123 and added a dash of balsamic vinegar and then briefly sauteed the relish. Thanks PaulaG!

I halved the recipe but used full amount of Relish. I did add just about a teaspoon of balsamic vinegar to the relish and put it in the skillet to heat a few moments before pouring over the omelet. Loved it! Thank you!
