Omelette With Pancetta, Chive and English Cheddar image

This recipe was made up by me. I decided to make a onlette for breakfast and had quite a few ingredients in the fridge. I tried it and i was in heaven, best omlette i've ever made and tasted. My family loved it and it filled me up for lunch and breakfast. Wonderful dish and so glad i wanted an omlette that morning! Please try it. You can add different cheeses but this came out perfectly.
