Mothers day is just around the corner, so, let’s talk brunch. How about some mimosa’s and an omelette Bar?
It’s Mother’s Day morning, and you want to whip up something special for the most important woman in your life, so whip up an omelette bar where everyone can create their own omelette. Because let’s be real, what mom doesn’t love a leisurely morning filled with delicious eats and quality time with her favorite people? Whip up a spread of her favorite breakfast goodies and maybe even a mimosa or two to really kick things off in style.
And what better way to show your love and appreciation than with a delicious homemade omelette? My father-in-law makes the best omelettes I’ve ever had. I think what makes them so special is he makes them thin and as a create your own. Simply having all the ingredients to choose from and make it just the way you want. So I say forget about following a recipe today. Let’s get creative and make our own masterpiece!
First things first, raid the fridge. You’ll need eggs, of course – they’re the star of the show. Then, take a peek at what veggies you’ve got lying around. Maybe some bell peppers, onions, mushrooms, or spinach? Chop ’em up nice and fine.
Perhaps if you have any meat, crispy bacon, ham, sausage anything you have around, or better yet, something already cooked.
Now, let’s talk cheese. Because, let’s be real, what’s an omelette without cheese? Grab whatever you’ve got on hand – cheddar, mozzarella, feta, cream cheese, you name it. Shred it up or crumble it, whatever floats your boat.
Heat up a skillet or griddle with a bit of butter or oil. Once it’s nice and hot, pour in your beaten eggs. I like to keep it very thin I think that’s what makes these omelettes so spectacular. Now, here’s where the fun begins, sprinkle your chopped veggies, any meat, and add cheese. Don’t be shy with the toppings – pile ’em on!
Using a spatula, carefully fold the omelette over the toppings.
Let it cook for another minute or so until the cheese gets all melty and gooey. Then, slide that beautiful omelette onto a plate. If you think she might prefer something sweeter, check out this recipe for Cinnamon French Toast.
