A simple mushroom omelet is a classic breakfast dish that is easy to make and packed with flavor. It is a great way to use up leftover mushrooms, and it can be served with a variety of sides, such as toast, fruit, or salad. The key to a good mushroom omelet is to use fresh, flavorful mushrooms and to cook them until they are tender but not mushy. You should also use a well-seasoned skillet and cook the omelet over medium-low heat so that it has time to cook through without burning.

MUSHROOM OMELETTE
The measurements for this recipe are guesstimates as I don't generally *measure* when I'm cooking, so it may be necessary to add more or less for personal preference. I also only used enough dried green pepper for one omelette, as my dad can't eat them!! So if it is desired for both, the amount will have to be increased. (If you can't find dried, chopped regular would also work fine, but might be easier to mix with mushrooms).

MUSHROOM AND CHEESE OMELET
Feel free to whisk a tablespoon of minced fresh herbs into the eggs before they go in the pan--parsley, chives, tarragon and chervil are some classic choices (alone or in combination). Another rich, creamy cheese can be used in place of the triple creme.

Steps:
- Crack the eggs into a small bowl, and use a fork to beat them with the salt and pepper.
- Heat an 8-inch omelet pan or shallow skillet (preferably nonstick) over medium-high heat. Add the butter, let it melt and swirl the pan so it coats the bottom evenly. Pour the eggs into the pan and quickly shake and swirl so the eggs completely cover the bottom. Let the eggs firm up on the bottom, about 30 seconds, then use a rubber spatula to lift the edges of the omelet up so any uncooked egg on the top runs underneath.
- Sprinkle half of the eggs with the sauteed mushrooms and cheese and let it cook for another 30 seconds; the top should be moist but not quite runny (unless you like it runny). Flip the uncooked side of the eggs over the filling, and slide it onto a plate. Garnish with fresh herbs, if desired.
- Heat a very large skillet over medium high heat. Add the oil, then the mushrooms and garlic, season with salt and pepper and saute until the liquid has evaporated and the mushrooms have turned nicely browned, about 10 minutes. Taste, adjust seasonings and serve hot.

MUSHROOM OMELET
