Easy Morning Omelets

Making Omelets for breakfast is always a great meal to start the day. However, as the cook, you get stuck at the stove creating one omelet at a time. Even if everyone wants the same items on their omelets, you can still only make one at a time. This results in a segmented meal where everyone's meal is eaten before the next omelet is complete. 


I have found a remedy to fix this problem. If you make your omelets this way, they will be perfect every time and be ready at the exact instant you need them. 

First prepare your eggs. 

6 fresh eggs
1 1/2 Tablespoons of cream
2 egg yolks

Whisk until light and airy. 

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F with (10" pan) lid in the oven. 

Spray 10" pan with nonstick spray them pour in just enough of the whisked eggs to cover the bottom of the pan. 

Use an oven mitt to retrieve lid out it the oven put on pan, and place covered pan in oven.
Set timer for 6 minutes. Make sure eggs have set and remove lid and place back into oven. Carefully flip pan over or remove omelet with a spatula and place on wax paper. Place another piece on top, and repeat putting the egg solution in the pan, and placing in the oven with the lid on. 


Once all you omlets are complete you can fill them right away or save them for another day. When ready to serve, preheat oven to 350 degrees F and fill with desired items (I choose diced cherry tomato and cheese) and roll up and put on a cookie sheet.
Bake just enough to melt cheese. There! You have 4 omlets ready all at the SAME TIME!! Enjoy your breakfast as a family.

Pomegranate Chocolate Cupcakes





Thanks to a dear reader of my food blog, I tried a unique cupcake flavor combination. She had the great idea to combine pomegranate and chocolate in a cupcake. I was unsure how to incorporate pomegranate into a cupcake until I found the pomegrante molasses at Savory Spice Shop 

You can purchase it here:

The final cupcake was a light vanilla cupcake batter, filled with chocolate ganache and topped with a pomegranate icing. 

The flavor was amazing. 

Thank you Rachel for the great idea!! I will be making these cupcakes again for sure!!
