I'm with you . . . too much cheese can kill a decent omelet. For me, mushrooms & ham, with light cheddar on top (NEVER inside!).

I like all kinds of different things inside and outside an omelet, But I don't like 'fluffy' eggs. The best I've had use well beaten eggs spread thin and wide on a large griddle, then rolled up like a burrito. I don't care for the traditional 'folded over' type, though I'm a master at making them for others.:)

Ham, mushrooms, with onions optional. Hold the cheese, please.

I'm fine with Omelet Ham and Onions or Omelet Ham and Cheese.

Ham, Cheddar, mushrooms and onions. Had it all over the world and am always happy with the results.

Had a ham, basil, fontina, and Parmesan this morning, properly cooked to runny perfection. Wasn't sure about the basil at first, but it worked!

What ever happens to be in the refrigerator, pantry and kitchen shelves. Cholula is almost a constant. Have to start with an equal amount of virgin olive oil and butter. Any of the following:
  • Mustard
  • gorgonzola or any other cheese
  • any type of onions
  • sweet peppers
  • jalapenos
  • roasted Hatch chilies and or
  • white asparagus (when in season)
  • ham - proscuitto or Iberico or Serrano
  • salt
  • pepper
  • corn
  • mushrooms
  • tomato
  • potato
and I am sure there are some items I've forgotten.

Ham, sausage and cheddar cheese, but it has to be on some type of bread, preferably a Kaiser roll or a poppy seed bagel.

Also, I once had an omelet with shrimp, crab and cheddar cheese (at Elway's in Denver) and that was amazing.

I ate ham, onions, black olives, mushroom, sausage, chedder omelet and it was so delicious to eat the breakfast time in the morning at the hotels. I am very full that I ate breakfast buffet.

I do enjoyable for my stay at The Orleans hotel for 3 days. We have a nice place to stay at entire hotels. I won't go to another expensive hotels anymore.

If you have a rice cooker
 
I've been really enjoying this simple rice cooker recipe for a baked fat omelet
http://justbento.com/handbook/recipe...mer-vegetables

My only alteration is that I add half a chopped onion to this recipe (red salad onion has been the best). Oh yes, and I add 4 eggs rather than 6 - even 3 big ones do the trick in my 5 cup rice cooker.

I tried making a Spanish tortilla de patatas with this method but it just didn't work out for me. For some reason it tasted bland - the baked 'frittata' recipe I linked to does need the grated parmesan for an umami kick.
I guess 'tortilla al horno' (baked tortilla) just isn't for me.

My usual omelette has mushrooms, onions and sausage (or bacon/ham), not too much stuff as the egg is obviously the hero of the dish and too much stuff/herbs overpowers the flavour of the egg!

I like Egg white omelet with spinach and goat cheese.
