Steps:
- Combine eggs and tomato in a small bowl and set aside.
- Haet greased, large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Pour in egg mixture. Mixture should immediately set at the edges.
- Carefully push cooked mixture at edges toward center so uncooked portions can reach the hot pan surface, tilting pan as necessary.
- While top is still moist and creamy-looking, top with roasted pepper, pesto and cheese.
- Reduce heat to low; fold omelet in half. Cook an additional 2 minutes and serve immediately.

CREAMY GOAT CHEESE PESTO OMELET (WW 10 POINTSPLUS)
Based on a recipe from John La Puma, M.D.'s cookbook, ChefMD's Big Book of Culinary Medicine. I use whole eggs since I believe the entire egg is good for you. DH says this recipe is like something you'd get at a fancy restaurant -- it's delicious! This is 10 PointsPlus (Weight Watchers) for each serving. Feta cheese may replace the goat cheese, and peas may replace the edammame. Tip: try different types of pesto in this dish: sundried tomato, cilantro, even arugula.

Steps:
- Heat a large nonstick skillet coated lightly with cooking spray over medium heat until hot. Add the edammame and cook until beginning to brown, 2 to 3 minutes.
- In medium bowl beat together the egg whites and cottage cheese; add to the skillet and stir in the edammame. Continue to cook without stirring for 2 minutes or until set on bottom. Using a spatula, gently lift the edges of the omelet to allow the uncooked portion of eggs to settle to the bottom and edges and set. Continue cooking for 2 minutes or until the center is almost set.
- Combine the goat cheese and pesto; spoon the mixture down the center of the omelet. Using a large spatula, fold half of the omelet over the filling.
- Reduce heat to low; cook for 2 minutes or until the cheese melts and the center is set.
- Use the large spatula to cut the omelet in half; transfer to serving dishes and top with basil.
- Serve with toast, and, if desired, preserves.
