VEGGIE OMELET WITH GOAT CHEESE

• In a small bowl, whisk eggs, milk, salt and pepper. In a large nonstick skillet, heat 2 teaspoons oil over medium-high heat. Add zucchini, mushrooms and green pepper; cook and stir 3-5 minutes or until tender., Add spinach, green onions and garlic; cook and stir 1-2 minutes longer or until spinach is wilted and garlic is tender. Transfer vegetable mixture to a small bowl. In same pan, heat remaining oil. Pour in egg mixture. Mixture should set immediately at edge., As eggs set, push cooked portions toward the center, letting uncooked eggs flow underneath. When eggs are thickened and no liquid egg remains, spoon vegetable mixture on one side; sprinkle with cheese. Fold omelet in half; cut in half and slide onto plates. Sprinkle with additional green onions.

VEGGIE CHEESE OMELET

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine the egg substitute, 1 tablespoon Parmesan cheese and seasonings. Coat an 8-in. nonstick skillet with cooking spray and place over medium heat. Pour egg mixture into skillet., As egg sets, lift edges, letting uncooked portion flow underneath.

Remove from the heat; cover and let stand for 3-4 minutes or until cheese is melted.

SUN-DRIED TOMATO AND GOAT CHEESE OMELET

Steps:

• Break the eggs into a bowl and beat with a fork or a whisk until they are frothy. Whisk in the milk, salt, pepper and garlic.
• Heat an 8-inch nonstick omelet pan over medium-high heat. Add 2 teaspoons olive oil. Hold your hand an inch or two above the pan, and when it feels hot, pour the eggs into the middle of the pan, scraping every last bit into the pan with a rubber spatula. Swirl the pan to distribute the eggs evenly over the surface. Shake the pan gently, tilting it slightly with one hand while lifting up the edges of the omelet with the spatula in your other hand, to let the eggs run underneath during the first few minutes of cooking.
• As soon as the eggs are set on the bottom, sprinkle the sun-dried tomatoes, cheese and basil over the middle of the egg "pancake," then jerk the pan quickly away from you then back toward you so that the omelet folds over onto itself. If you don't like your omelet runny in the middle (I do), jerk the pan again so that the omelet folds over once more. Cook for a minute or two longer. Tilt the pan and roll the omelet out onto a plate, and serve.

VEGGIE CREAM CHEESE OMELETS

• In medium bowl, beat eggs, salt and pepper with fork or wire whisk until well blended; set aside. In 8-inch nonstick omelet pan or skillet, heat 2 teaspoons of the butter over medium heat. Cook asparagus and bell pepper in butter 3 to 4 minutes, stirring frequently, until crisp-tender; remove from pan.
• Add 2 teaspoons of the butter to pan. Increase heat to medium-high. Pour half of the egg mixture (scant 1 cup) into pan. As mixture begins to set at bottom and side, gently lift cooked portions with spatula so that thin, uncooked portion can flow to bottom. Avoid constant stirring. Cook 3 to 4 minutes or until eggs are thickened throughout but still moist.
• Spoon 1/4 cup of the cream cheese in dollops evenly over omelet; top with half of the asparagus and bell pepper. Tilt skillet and slip pancake turner under omelet to loosen. Remove from heat. Fold omelet in half; remove omelet from skillet. Repeat with remaining ingredients. To serve, cut each omelet crosswise in half; sprinkle with chives.

YUMMY VEGGIE OMELET

Steps:

• Melt one tablespoon butter in a medium skillet over medium heat. Place onion and bell pepper inside of the skillet. Cook for 4 to 5 minutes stirring occasionally until vegetables are just tender.
• While the vegetables are cooking beat the eggs with the milk, 1/2 teaspoon salt and pepper.
• Shred the cheese into a small bowl and set it aside.
• Remove the vegetables from heat, transfer them to another bowl and sprinkle the remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt over them.
• Melt the remaining 1 tablespoon butter (in the skillet just used to cook the vegetables) over medium heat. Coat the skillet with the butter. When the butter is bubbly add the egg mixture and cook the egg for 2 minutes or until the eggs begin to set on the bottom of the pan. Gently lift the edges of the omelet with a spatula to let the uncooked part of the eggs flow toward the edges and cook. Continue cooking for 2 to 3 minutes or until the center of the omelet starts to look dry.
• Sprinkle the cheese over the omelet and spoon the vegetable mixture into the center of the omelet. Using a spatula gently fold one edge of the omelet over the vegetables. Let the omelet cook for another two minutes or until the cheese melts to your desired consistency. Slide the omelet out of the skillet and onto a plate. Cut in half and serve.

GOAT CHEESE AND APPLE OMELET

Steps:

• Melt half the butter in a small nonstick saucepan or wok over medium heat. Add apple and cook until slices start to brown, then add sugar. Stir slices until nicely browned, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside. Cut 3 slices of goat cheese, 1/2 inch thick.
• Beat eggs and milk together, just until uniform; do not overbeat. Heat remaining butter in an omelet pan or small nonstick pan over high heat. When butter foams, add eggs and reduce heat to medium-low. When omelet is about half firm, carefully turn it over.
• Arrange goat cheese on one half of omelet; cover cheese with apple slices. Fold omelet in half, turn off heat and leave for one minute. Place omelet on a warm plate, and sprinkle with black pepper. Serve immediately, with a witbier.

GOAT CHEESE OMELET WITH MIXED HERBS, LYONNAISE POTATOES, GLAZED HAM AND TEXAS TOAST

Steps:

• In a 4-cup liquid measuring cup or large bowl with a spout, gently whisk the eggs with the heavy cream until blended. Whisk in the herbs.
• Heat an 8-inch nonstick skillet over medium-low heat. Add the butter to the pan and swirl to coat the bottom and sides. Stir the egg mixture again, then pour into the pan. Immediately start stirring with a rubber spatula and scraping around the edges of the pan without stopping. Add the salt. As soon as the eggs are just scrambled but still quite wet, spread the eggs in an even layer on the bottom of the pan. Add the cheese in a line down the eggs, perpendicular to the pan handle. Tilt the pan at a 45-degree angle to your serving plate and start nudging the edge of the egg closest to you to roll the top third of the egg over the filling in the center. Keep nudging to roll again into a three-fold omelet. The final roll should flip the omelet out of the pan and onto your plate.
• Mix the paprika, cayenne and 1 teaspoon salt together in a small bowl. Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the potatoes and a pinch of salt; cook, tossing about every 5 minutes, until evenly golden brown, about 15 minutes total. Add the onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions are golden brown and tender, 5 to 7 minutes. Stir in the paprika mixture and season with salt and pepper to taste.
• Combine the maple syrup and apple cider vinegar in a small bowl. Preheat a flat top grill or cast-iron pan over medium-high heat and brush with oil. Sear the ham until golden, flipping halfway through, 2 minutes per side. Glaze the ham with the maple syrup mixture with a heatproof brush and cook 1 minute longer.
• Add the toast to the flat top and toast 1 to 2 minutes per side. Spread with butter and cut in half diagonally.
