GRILLED PEPPER OMELET
Roasted peppers, chopped herbs and a little bit of Parmesan make for a quick omelet in the spirit of a pipérade. I often make the classic Basque pipérade, eggs scrambled with stewed peppers and tomatoes. This time, I kept it a little simpler and used my roasted peppers to fill an omelet. I added chopped, fresh herbs and a little bit of Parmesan to the mix. If your peppers are already roasted (I had plenty on hand as I'd been working with roasted peppers all week) this is a 2- to 5-minute dinner. As always, the better the eggs (farm-fresh, pastured), the better the omelet.

Steps:
- Make sure peppers are nicely seasoned. Stir in chopped herbs if using.
- Break eggs into a bowl and beat with a fork or a whisk until frothy. Whisk in salt and pepper to taste and milk if desired.
- Heat an 8-inch nonstick omelet pan over medium-high heat. Add olive oil. When oil feels hot when you hold your hand above it, pour eggs into the middle of the pan, scraping every last bit into the pan with a rubber spatula. Swirl pan to distribute eggs evenly over the surface. Shake pan gently, tilting it slightly with one hand while lifting up the edges of the omelet with the spatula in your other, to let eggs run underneath during the first minute of cooking.
- As soon as a few layers of egg are set on the bottom, spoon peppers down the middle of the egg "pancake" and sprinkle on Parmesan. Jerk pan quickly away from you then back toward you so the omelet folds over on itself. If you don't like your omelet runny in the middle, jerk pan again so omelet folds over once more. Cook for up to a minute longer. Tilt pan and roll out onto a plate.

LEEK AND PEPPER OMELETTE
I found this recipe in Janet Wright's book "The top 100 health tips", published by Lifetime Distributers, Castle Hill, Australia. Janet says "Eating the right meal within an hour or two after excercise could make the biggest difference you've noticed yet. That's the time when your body needs - and most effectively uses - food to turn your effort into stronger muscles and increased energy levels. It's also when you burn fat most effectively. Eggs are a concentrated source of muscle-building amino acids and other body-building nutrients. They're also rich in vitamin K, which helps to heal bruises and other minor sports injuries. This vitamin works by ensuring that blood is able to clot normally, so it could also reduce the danger of blood clots in arteries." The original recipe called for groundnut oil, but I think butter would work just fine - or any other oil you have on hand. This would make a nice breakfast for an extremely hungry person, or could be shared among a few people. If you're just making it for yourself, you might want to halve it. I haven't tried this recipe yet.
