HOW MAKE MUSHROOM OMELETTE
The trick to making the BEST MUSHROOM OMELETTE.
Is to use plenty of mushrooms and sauteing them in butter prior to making the egg part of this dish.
Then you will want to mix the eggs with some milk and saute in a little olive oil till it becomes firm enough to flip over. Ensuring the cheese is fully melted and the peppers have been added to the omelette.
Top with those sauteed mushrooms and fresh parsley.
If you have ever had a margherita pizza and liked it your sure to enjoy this recipe.
The taste is the same minus the bread which is replaced with eggs.
So if you are on a paleo or gluten free diet than this would be perfect.
I highly recommending using jalapeno cheese instead of mozzarella for this recipe, as it gives it that extra kick that works so well.
These omelettes are sure to be popular in your household for all those who love eggs, mushrooms, cheese and red peppers.
Also feel free to use anywhere from 2 to 3 eggs for this recipe, I tend to use 3 when serving it for dinner and 2 for breakfast. This particular recipe calls for 3 each.
So you will start by simply, cooking the passata sauce along with the spinach. Once it’s been simmering for 5 minutes on medium heat.
Then remove it from the heat and allow it to cool down before pouring onto the plates.
Then you can crack and beat the eggs till slightly fluffy in a medium sized bowl.
Season lightly with some salt and pepper and place in a small non stick frying pan after the butter as coasted the bottom of the pan.
Cooking the omelette is super simple, as you are just cooking it over medium high heat till it starts to bubble and firm.
You may want to shake the pan a bit to allow the egg to cook more evenly.
Top wth the remaining sauteed mushrooms and fresh parsley.
Note: Feel free to use Mozzarella cheese instead of Jalapeno Cheese if desired.
