BAKED OMELET WITH BROCCOLI & TOMATO
Simple easy omelet to make - It puffs a bit but is not a "Fluffy" omelet. If you wish to liven this omelet up use fresh herbs and add some chili flakes. Use fat reduced cheese if you wish. I like my veggies crisp so I do not pre steam the broccoli but if you like it well done then pre steam . If you wish cut up the cheese in small pieces rather than shred and place them on the tomto slices. This recipe is from the Internet
