Have you ever wondered how chefs can flip an omelet so effortlessly and perfectly in a sauté pan? Well, I’m still wondering. However, my failed attempt at flipping did not hinder the final product which completely impressed me.
Last month, Ina Garten shared a recipe for a very simple two egg omelet, yet included ingredients that I don’t often think to use. Curious, I knew I had to give it a try and did last weekend.
The Fine Herbs Omelet incorporates goat cheese, a classic fresh herb combination and roasted red peppers and let me just say, I was in breakfast heaven savoring every bite along with freshly made scones topped with homemade jam and a hot cup of tea.
Since my flipping didn’t yield the best photogenic results, I had to borrow the image below, but trust me this is a recipe that will be an impressive breakfast-in-bed menu item or something to treat yourself to on a leisurely weekend morning.

Thats sounds delish! I always add goat cheese to my omelettes because I am such a goat cheese lover. It’s my fav!

Oh, what a delicious sounding recipe. I’m mad about eggs – especially the organic kind.
