I've never understood peeling tomatoes when their skin is already so thin. These ones just got chopped. |
Add tomatoes, parsley, tomato paste, basil, oregano, salt
and pepper to the eggs.
Hey! Wait! What about the capsicum?! |
Heat 2 teaspoons of margarine in a frying pan. Pour the
egg mixture into the pan. Lower the heat. Spread the mushroom and cheese over
the omelette.
Since the recipe left the poor bell peppers out, I mixed about 3/4 of them in with the egg mixture, and put the rest on top with the cheese and mushrooms. |
I also used more cheese than it called for. Because recipes never call for enough cheese. |
Cover the pan and let the omelette cook for about 20 minutes.
Eat it with a fork, but be ready for a surprising amount of pizza flavor! |
My Rating: 4/5 "Creative, eh? All the fresh veggies are great, and the cheese and tomato paste give it a lot of substance. It's sloppy in all the best ways!"
