Alice in Wonderland Omelet

Chasing the rabbit into the hole made Alice very hungry. The rabbit's garden offered a fresh fare. "Oh!" Alice replied, "these mushrooms look amazing!" She plucked one from the garden and nibbled on the delicate little button. As she swallowed the flavorful little fungus her head began to spin. She collapsed onto the garden bed and fell unconscious slipping into a deep dream. In this dream she was in Joee's kitchen. She immediately noticed that the dishes were unkempt and the floor was scattered with bits of crumbs and a collection of hot wheels and monster trucks. Stepping around the toys she made her way to the refrigerator. She slowly opened the door, afraid of what may jump out from the cool shelves. Much to her delight there were no spooks...just a variety of foods that she instinctively knew would make an incredible breakfast. She selected a few items and began to cook as she had never cooked before. The kitchen came to life, seemingly of its own accord! The fork whipped the eggs without her hand, the mushrooms jumped into a cool bath to rinse themselves, and the avocado split itself in two in anticipation of being sliced. She began to conduct the edibles as if they were a practiced orchestra. The scene exploded into a Fantasia. Alice's mouth began to water. When the omelet delicately floated onto the plate she reached for a utensil to sample the wares... only to wake up screaming "It is MY omelet! It is MY omelet!." She was dirty and moist from laying in the rich earth. Her hair was matted from writhing in place. A hot tear rolled down her cheek as she shivered at the memory of the omelet she never had the chance to try. Alice decided that day she would never again trespass on a rabbit's garden.

May this omelet bring your fantasies to life today!

My Review:

The SHNOZBERRIES taste like SHNOZBERRIES!!!  I'm not sure what kind of mushrooms I used... should my carpet be moving?   Is that a blue dog using my toilet? 

Alright, Lewis Carrol nonsense aside, this was AWESOME. If you noticed I did not heat the filling and I am glad I didn't. The cool mushrooms contrasted beautifully with the warm eggs. It was almost like eating a chef's salad, minus the greens of course. Now if I could get this monkey out of my ear...

Credit for this Omelet goes to SEVERAL of my readers! You know who you are! I am just sorry it took me so long to get mushrooms into the mix!  Thank you for the inspiration!!













Omelet and a Schmear

Happy New Year my friends and fans!!!  I am SO excited to start this one off right! And like every other 30 something Mom on the planet, I am in resolution mode big time. So there will be a few changes here for as long as health is my priority. Well a semi-priority. Maybe more of a an ideal at this point. I give myself two weeks...

Anyhoo, moving on! I will now be featuring the two egg omelet VS the three Egg omelet. Really there will be no difference in the recipe and you can adjust accordingly as well following my fail-safe tips HERE. By dropping just one egg you lose 70 calories, some cholesterol I guess and you have less room for delicious ass-enhancing filling. Every little bit helps I suppose. Not to say that I am going to do away with all the good fattening stuffs... just reduce the quantity by a little bit and add in a veggie here and there. I refuse to give up my butter though! Weight loss be damned if I can't have some butter!!!

Oh and I'm SO excited to announce that I was given a RAD gift... the Magic Bullet!!  SWOON! Me and my bullet still have some courting to do, but so far I am rather impressed! I will gladly share little tips and tricks I learn along the way!

Alright enough babbling!!  ONTO THE OMELET!!!

Omelet and a Schmear

Ingredients:

canned salmon
cream cheese
green bell pepper
fresh tomato
Havarti cheese
Basic Omelet

Open and drain salmon. Chop up your bell pepper and tomato according to preference. Using about tbsp cream cheese (softened) mix together thoroughly with desired amount of salmon creating a paste (I used the bullet!) Set aside. Add bell pepper to egg mixture and cook your basic omelet. On the flip, schmear your paste on the omelet and fold. Top with Havarti cheese and fresh tomato. Serve and NOMS!

All the things you need to make this beauty!

My new TOY!!

Crappy pic, but here is the basic omelet ready to mix.

Salmon Paste ready to  mix.

I felt the need to post ONE more pic of the bullet magic...

Yeah well, need a little more practice getting the textures right!

This is my official 2 egg omelet pan. Just the right size!

Again, I need some practice with the bullet. Chunky monkey.

Schmeared Omelet

Schmear perfection!

My review:

I made a few rookie mistakes with this one. I really should have sauteed the bell pepper first. It complimented well, but lacked the bold flavor I love. Also, I was a little skimpy with the salmon. I was a little afraid of overwhelming the omelet with a fishy flavor and played it down to much. it fought with the cream cheese rather than flowed. And finally, although I did enjoy the fresh flavor I would most certainly include green onion next time. It was just a little too dull.
