VEGGIE OMELET WITH GOAT CHEESE

Veggie Omelet with Goat Cheese image

My family eats a lot of vegetables so I'll set some aside at dinner to use in an omelet the next day. This cuts prep time in half! I like the versatility of this recipe because it can be made with whatever veggies and cheeses you have. -Lynne Keast, Monte Sereno, California
