Great tasting healthy recipe! I did have to add an extra egg. I also did not fold it over, but rather sprinkled Parmesan cheese on the top and put it under the boiler for two minutes to finish it off. This makes it a frittata, not an omelette.
Thanks for trying the recipe! It sounds really good!
I made this with feta cheese and 2 portions of laughing cow spicy jack cheese. 2 tablespoons of jalapeño. Extremely satisfying tasty cost-effective meal. Used up the bulk of the bits I wanted to clear out of fridge.
Sounds yummy! Thank you for your comment!
Thank you for this recipe. I’m looking for easy and tasty ways to include more Omega 3’s into my diet. This is perfect. Yum-O!
Thank you for your nice comment! I’m glad you like the recipe.
So why didn’t you mention before folding add the stuffing? I know to do this but a lot of new cooks made not draw that conclusion?
Thanks for your comment. I’ll take it into consideration.
It doesn’tool like it’s stuffed. It looks like it’s mixed with the egg then pan fried, and then folded.
Right. That’s how the recipe goes:)
Just what I was looking for
Thank you so much! I’m glad you got what you want!
