Pretty much a purist.
3 large eggs, gouda, dried tarragon or herbs d'provence, whisked to add some air and fluff, cooked in real butter as described below by stut and slightly runny from the cheese. Kosher salt and fresh pepper when on the plate. Fresh strawberries on the side.
Alternative is eggs and green salsa which Cholula unfortunately doesn't make or I promise I would use. (so I'm forced to use Victoria, but of course I don't do it very often. Rarely, if at all. Almost never. It makes me feel dirty, but I can't help it.)
If it's a hashbrown kind of day, ham omelet is the way to go, but not if it's those square rubber chunks of ham favored by bad restaurants.

Must haave cheese.
I'm partially to feta with spinach, onion plus a little garlic and basil. Make sure to chop up the spinach. It's easier to eat that way.

Much as I love and rate Tortilla de Patatas (Spanish potato omelet) it does take some time and effort to make.
I came across this simple and quick recipe recently and think it's wonderful.
http://mykoreankitchen.com/2006/10/0...eon-in-korean/
In summary:
* 2 eggs - beaten
* 250g tuna
* 3 stalks of small spring onions - sliced
* 1/4 an onion - sliced into small pieces
* 1 red and 1 green chili - sliced
* 2 tsp all purpose white flour
* 2 sprinkles of salt
Mix ingredients together, spoon onto a hot oiled frying pan in little 2-3 inch rounds and turn over once browned.
The part that makes these omelets sensational is the dipping sauce:
Mix together
* Sugar 2 tsp
* Soy Sauce 3 tsp
* Water 3 tsp
* Vinegar 3 tsp
* Some Onion Pieces

- I've made a few more recipes from the same blog and they've all been really good.
