You can dress up a plain omelet in a mind-boggling number of ways. Every set of filling ingredients gives it a different personality. Some seem natural for breakfast or brunch, others for lunch. And there's nothing like a gooey cheese-filled omelet for a late-night supper. Here are some of our favorite simple combos. Ingredients:
diced canned roasted red pepper |
swiss chard, shredded |
pecorino romano cheese, grated |
leeks, thinly sliced |
butter |
camembert or brie cheese, sliced |
cream cheese, cubed |
green onions, sliced |
2 slices of smoked salmon |
cooked potato |
ricotta cheese |
fresh-ground black pepper |
1 to 2 tablespoons fresh herbs, chopped |
thyme |
parsley |
chives |
tarragon |
chervil |
Directions:
1. Layer diced canned roasted red pepper, shredded Swiss chard, and grated pecorino romano cheese.
2. Sauté thinly sliced leeks in butter; add along with sliced Camembert or brie cheese.
3. Cut cream cheese into cubes and pair with sliced green onions and a couple of slices of smoked salmon.
4. Make a hearty but chic creation with a few slices of cooked potato, some ricotta cheese, and plenty of fresh-ground black pepper.
5. Liven up any omelet by adding 1 to 2 tablespoons chopped fresh herbs to the egg mixture. Try thyme, parsley, chives, tarragon, and chervil, alone or combined.
