What do you like in an omelet?

I like swiss cheese and green onions. I also like grape jelly and cream cheese.

And lots of garlic (spinach and mushrooms are great for soaking up the garlic; even better with crimini mushrooms, or failing that, portabello).

Lately I've been using my fresh-from-the-garden tomatoes and basil, along with a little feta cheese. Mmmm...

I like ham cheese peppers and onions. But the peppers and onions need to be finely chopped. Nothing turns me off to an omlette more than large peices.

Cheddar, ham, and mushrooms. Any time of day. In fact, I may go make one right now.

I found a recipe on epicurious.com before I headed home for a zuchini omelet. It was excellent. Seasoned with black pepper and marjoram. I couldn't resist adding swiss cheese. Served with toasted english muffin bread and a salad.

potatoes, onions and salt - classic Spanish tortilla

also good with wisp thin esparragus and a touch of garlic

with sugar and dashi to make a rolled omelet

And the classic chervil/chives/parsley combination is a winner

I once had a strange combination of potato and grated cooking apple with a bubbling coating of parmesan which was rather nice - enough to replicate it at home a couple of times.
