Whats in your omelette?

[strawberry]

Sweet onions or green onions, crumbled american bacon or canadian bacon, roasted garlic, diced/seeded tomatoes and cheddar or jack cheese.

I must admit I'm not a fan of the traditional French style omelet. I tend to like mine 'taco' style where it's just folded over in half.

Tuna, Sweetcorn & Parsley with small cubes of Potato - Yum!

[Mr._Steak]

Sausage, onions, mushrooms, green peppers, pepperoni (cut up), so the same things I like on top of a pizza I also like in eggs!!

 

[simplicity]

Generally cheddar and sauteed mushrooms, or cheddar and pickled jalapeno slices.

Goodweed, I am soo glad that you said you like Velveeta. We like making grilled cheese sandwiches with it. (I'm outta the closet with that one, whew!)

 

[girlgioush]

Sweet corn--> it's a must!!!
Mushroom--> if i have it
Onion--> always have it
Cheese--> won't miss it !!

Okay, I've tried just about everything listed here, except the tuna, or the corn, and I'll usually order either a Denver or Western omelette without onions, or ham and cheddar if I'm in a restaurant, but my all time favorite at home is Italian sausage, bell peppers (any color), and mozzarella, with a good portion of marinara ladeled over the top, and garlic toast to go with. But, when all is said and done, if I am making it at home, and I have the time, I prefer a traditional fritatta with the same ingredients, plus diced potato, over an omelette.

cheddar cheese and ham. sometimes swiss and ham. or just plain xsharp cheddar.

 

[suziquzie]

Oh where to start!?!
I can't ever fit enough in them!
Fried potatoes, caramelized onions and peppers, spinach, LOTS of cheddar or swiss cheese, sometimes both, pepper jack if I have some, ham, sauteed mushrooms, hmm I thought there was more.
I think I just figured out my dinner!

I too am in the 'what ever is in the fridge' camp.

Yesterday it was mushrooms, onion, diced pepperoni, thought about cheese.

Pretty much everything going into my omelet(s) is sautéd, I use carry over to finish cooking the egg. Consequently not many, or much of, those items with a high specific heat are used.

Salt and pepper, Tobasco or cayenne in a 'solo' omelet.

Oh I forgot another one I like a lot, Hatfield's pepper and onion sausage.

 

[DrThunder88]

Some sort of cured pork and a yellow cheese.

 

[LadyCook61]

Acutally I made a frittata with 6 cheeses. Asagio, Romano, Parmesan, Mozzarella, Provolone and Fontinella. I do like my cheese .

 

[DrThunder88]

Cheese is great with eggs! No way around it!

Anyone like a little wasabi with their omlettes? I'm finding it to be an exceptional pairing.

 

[Bilby]

Actually never tried wasabi with an omelette! Never even thought of it!

Usally my omelettes have a combination of cheese (always!), smoked salmon or trout, mushrooms, asparagus, tomatoes, pate and/or tuna. Not all at the same time you understand!! Really a bit of what I have leftover or open in the fridge at the time I am making it.

When I was a kid, I used to like adding tinned corned beef with cheese into the mix. Don't know what I think of the combo now but back then I thought it wonderful!

 

[LadyCook61]

cheese, ham or sausage, or bacon. Parsley, or basil. I like all kinds of cheese, so it depends what I have in the fridge and in the mood for.
Also like red, yellow and orange peppers.
Sometimes a dab of cream cheese only.

Sweet onions or green onions, crumbled american bacon or canadian bacon, roasted garlic, diced/seeded tomatoes and cheddar or jack cheese.

I like just folded in half too, mostly because I put too much in the eggs
