The cream-cheese in the omelet makes the inside really fluffy with added flavor. If you like salmon, the cured kind is nice to keep on hand. You can use it in so many recipes - on bagels/sandwiches, in pasta with a white cream sauce - and in omelets! Since it's cured it's already been salted and prepared, which makes the assembly much easier. Peas were added for a little color and texture.
Ingredients:
3 large eggs
1/4 frozen peas. thawed
1/3 cup chopped cured salmon
1/4 milk/half & half
1-2 handfuls of parmesean cheese
2 Tbs chive-flavored cream-cheese
pepper to taste
* since the salmon, cream-cheese and parmesan cheese are all pretty salty anyways, you don't really need to add anymore salt.
what to do:
1. In a mixing bowl, wisk together the eggs and milk
2. Add in the cream cheese and wisk until combined
3. Add in the salmon and peas and pepper
4. Heat a smaller round skillet with oil or butter
5. Pour in the egg mixture and keep the heat on low-med
6. Sprinkle 1 handful of parmesan on the egg
7. Use a rubber spatula to run along the edges of the omelet against the pan to make sure it's not sticking.
8. Once the egg has almost firmed on the top, very carefully flip one side over onto the other
9. Flip the omelet once so both sides are evenly cooked
10. Top with the rest of the parmesan cheese and pepper
