Morning After Omelet

Have you ever had a great girls night out, maybe you drank a little too much, had to "cab-it" home even? On the flip side of that you may have even had that amazing Valentine's Day date that ended in a little "over-nighter". You get up and just want to dazzel your guest(s) with your culinary skills so they leave thinking that YOU are the coolest girl (or guy) ever. I know I do. We all do. The great thing about this recipe is that you can customize it to meet your or your guest(s) particular taste. My version here was very basic and right up my alley but if I get the opportunity to make it for someone else I would possibly add mushrooms, maybe onion or some sausage with a second type of cheese to add a little zip. Have them coming back for more.

Absent from the ingredients pictured here is Mozzarella cheese and fresh dill.

Beat six eggs (or just the whites) and one tbsp chopped dill.

I used a 12 inch cast iron skillet, which was a bit larger than needed, so the next time I will double the entire recipe (you can find different size skillets at WalMart). I combined the egg mixture, the chopped asparagus, and the baby spinach leaves in the skillet and covered it with 2 tbsp grated Parmesan cheese. I think in the future, I will add some sharp cheddar or goat cheese and sausage just to spice it up a bit. You could add a little salsa for that as well.

Bake in a 350 degree oven, uncovered, for six to eight minutes. It comes out looking like this. You can sprinkle with fresh dill if desired. While it is still warm, slice and serve. Add toast or two slices of whole-wheat English muffin if you prefer. 

Breakfast is served.
