Steps:
- Coat a small, nonstick saute pan lightly with olive oil. Add the onions, season with salt, and bring the pan to a medium heat. Cook the onions, stirring occasionally, for 3 to 4 minutes.
- Add the zucchini and season lightly with salt. Cook the onions and zucchini, stirring occasionally, until the zucchini is soft, 3 to 4 minutes.
- Add the beaten egg mixture (be sure that the mixture is smooth-no hunks of egg white). Using a small, heatproof rubber spatula, stir the zucchini mixture throughout the eggs. Don't worry about messing up the eggs, they will smooth out. Tilt the pan to allow the uncooked egg mixture to run to the sides of the pan to create a wide, flat "scrambled egg". Swirl the pan around occasionally to loosen the eggs from the bottom of the pan.
- When the eggs are three-quarters of the way cooked through, sprinkle the middle third of the omelet with the grated fontina and most of the chives (save some chives for garnish). Turn off the heat.
- Using the spatula, fold the left third of the omelet over the cheese/chive mixture. Press gently to secure.
- Gently shake the pan to be sure that the omelet is loosened from the pan. Gently lay the right third of the omelet down on a serving plate and flip the other 2/3 of the omelet on top. The omelet should be folded like a letter.
- Garnish the top with the remaining chives and serve with Mesclun Salad with Balsamic Vinaigrette.
- For the vinny: In a small mixing bowl, combine the vinegar and mustard. Mix until smooth. While mixing, start adding the oil into the vinegar/mustard mix drop by drop. Really-one drop at a time! One the drop has mixed in, add the next drop-this shouldn't really be an arm workout.
- When the mixture starts to look smooth and velvety, the oil can be added a little bit faster. Continue this way until all the oil has been added. When done, it should look very smooth, shiny, and homogeneous.
- Add the garlic and season with salt. Taste it, it should taste good! Season with salt again, if needed.
- To assemble the salad: Toss together the mesclun, cukes, tomatoes, and onions. Dress lightly with the vinaigrette. (You will not need to use all the dressing you made. Store the extra in the fridge and bring to room temperature when ready to use.)
- Season vinaigrette with salt, if needed. Taste! The salad should be very flavorful but not soggy.
- Plate the salad, piling it up so the lettuce looks fluffy and healthy and is adorned with the veggies. Using a veggie peeler, shave the cheese on top.
ZUCCHINI WITH ONION AND TOMATO
This is a basic recipe for zucchini. Zucchini, because it is so abundant in summer, produces lots of recipes for "how to get rid of it". This one is for enjoying it for its own sake. The amounts for each ingredient are very flexible. Use your own judgement. It's hard to go wrong. Gardeners can avoid a glut of zucchini by harvesting it at its best, about the time the blossom drops from the fruit.

BRIAM (GREEK BAKED ZUCCHINI AND POTATOES)
Briam is a traditional Greek roasted vegetable dish with potatoes, zucchini, tomatoes, and red onions with lots of olive oil. It is a typical example of Greek cuisine where a few simple ingredients are turned into an utterly delicious dish with little effort. It can be served as a main course. With olive oil as the only source of fat it is a quintessential example of the Mediterranean diet, and it is vegan to boot. If preferred, serve with a hearty chunk of feta on the side.
