OMELET WITH BACON AND PARMESAN CHEESE
Simplicity. The comfort of bacon with a touch of sophistication from Parmesan cheese and Italian seasoning. Please do not add additional salt, it is not needed! I prepared this this morning to finish off a bottle of shredded Parmesan cheese. Each serving is a 3-egg omelet. The cooking time is long because I cook my bacon on low heat. But I can't stop you from cooking it your way, can I?

Steps:
- Cook 2 pieces of bacon on medium-low heat in 10-inch saute pan,until browned but not super crisp. After first side has browned, turn over to brown other side. The second side will take almost no time.
- Place cooked bacon on paper-towel-lined plate, and blot top with paper towel. When cool, crumble bacon and set aside.
- Pour off all but 1 tablespoon of bacon grease.
- With a fork, lightly beat eggs with Italian seasoning. Do not add salt; I don't think pepper is needed, either.
- Heat pan with remaining bacon grease to medium heat. Then pour in egg batter.
- As egg sets, gently push egg batter from pan's side toward 2 inches from center with a spatula, and repeat on other side. Let fluid egg batter fill exposed pan.
- Again, as egg sets, begin 90 degrees from before, push egg batter from pan's side, etc. The idea is to ensure that uncooked egg batter gets exposed to the heat. Try not to end up with all of the egg piled in the center of the pan. :wink:
- As top of egg starts to set, sprinkle crumbled bacon on one half of omelet. Sprinkle parmesan cheese across entire top surface of omelet. If bottom of omelet seems set, but top is not done, put a lid on the pan for about a minute to assist.
- When top has set, turn off heat, turn bacon-less half over to cover bacon half. With spatula, cut in half and serve half on one plate, and other half on another plate.
- Serves two, each is a 3-egg omelet.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, cream, salt, and black pepper.
- Spray a large, rimmed baking sheet with cooking spray. Lay a piece of parchment paper on the baking sheet, making sure the parchment paper is long enough to hang over the length of the sheet pan.
- Spray the parchment paper with cooking spray and pour the eggs into the sheet pan. Bake until the eggs are firm, about 15 to 18 minutes, rotating the pan half way through the cooking time.
- Remove the eggs from the oven when they are set and sprinkle the cheese on top.
- Grab one side of the parchment paper, lift and roll the eggs tightly, jelly roll-style, peeling back the parchment as you go.
- Slice the rolled omelet into thick, even slices and serve with Bacon Roasted Potatoes.
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- On a rimmed baking sheet, combine the potatoes, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Toss the mixture to evenly coat. Roast the potatoes in the oven until deep golden brown and crispy, about 20 to 25 minutes.
- In a large, heavy-bottomed pot, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat, until deep-fry thermometer reads 350 degrees F.
- Fry the bacon chunks until golden and crispy, and then drain them on a paper towel.
- In a large saute pan, add 2 tablespoons butter and 2 tablespoons olive oil. When the butter is melted, add the onions. Saute the onions over high-heat until nicely caramelized, about 6 to 8 minutes. Season the onions with salt, and pepper, to taste.
- In a large bowl, gently stir together the potatoes, onions and bacon. Turn the mixture out onto a platter and serve warm.
