This omelet was delicious! I made it for breakfast this morning and my family loved it. The salsa and avocado were the perfect toppings.

This omelet was a disappointment. The eggs were overcooked and the filling was dry. I would not recommend this recipe.

I thought this omelet was just okay. The flavor was a bit bland, even though I used a variety of peppers and onions. I think I would have liked it better with more cheese.

This recipe was easy to follow and the omelet turned out great! I used a mix of mozzarella and cheddar cheese, and I added some chopped cilantro to the salsa. It was a hit with my family.

I love this recipe! The omelet was fluffy and cheesy, and the salsa and avocado added just the right amount of flavor and creaminess. I will definitely be making this again.
