I find omelets a comforting meal. They are uncomplicated and your imagination is limitless. Combine flavors that tickle your imagination. Make a good cup of coffee or tea to serve with it and sit down and rest a minute.

Catherine, Wow! This one is way off the charts for me...apples, honey and basil in an omelet?! I'd give it a try but I guess that I'm in a rut when it comes to my use of eggs! Take Care, Big Daddy Dave

Wow! And I thought my basil+peach combo was daring. But to add the sweet+savory and throw it in eggs?! That's a new one, and I'm totally intrigued and want to try it out!

Apples in an omelet is a new idea but I can see it working. I agree with you about diversity and omelets. They are fun to make besides being good to eat.
Catherine says
