Fresh Herbed Omelet With Goat Cheese Recipe


Ingredients
  • 2 large egg(s)
  • 2 large egg white(s)
  • 1 tablespoon basil, fresh, chopped
  • 2 teaspoon oregano, fresh, chopped
  • 2 teaspoon thyme, fresh, chopped
  • 2 tablespoon milk, fat-free
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Preparation

1. Combine first 8 ingredients in a bowl, stirring with a whisk.

2. Melt butter in a 9-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat. Pour egg mixture into pan. As mixture starts to cook, gently lift edges of omelet with a spatula, and tilt pan so uncooked portion flows underneath. Cook just until set (about 5 minutes).

3. Sprinkle cheese over omelet. Fold omelet in half; cover and reduce heat to low. Cook 2 minutes. Cut omelet in half crosswise. Serve immediately.

Yield: 2 servings (serving size: 1/2 of omelet).
