Savory Omelet Cups image

I replaced the pastry portion of this recipe with a light crepe-like cup. Baked in tiny oven-proof dishes, they're filled with cheese, leeks, scallions, olives and sun-dried tomatoes. My son, a vegetarian, always asks for them. -Joan Churchill of Dover, New Hampshire

I'm not a morning person, so I love that these omelet cups can be made ahead of time. I just pop them in the microwave in the morning and they're ready to eat.

These are a great way to use up leftover veggies. I had some leftover spinach and mushrooms, so I added them to the omelet cups. They turned out delicious!
