My omelets bring all the boys to the yard

Ladies, 

this is your basic omelet recipe that will have any man you make it for, praising you for skills. 
"The way to a man's heart is through his stomach" is exactly right :) 

Even though I didn't make it for my significant other, I made it for my dad, if daddy approves...of course other men will also! 

Boys--you can also make this omelet for yourselves, this recipe is just exclusively for the ladies!

Ingredients:  
5 eggs
Splash of milk, or 1 Tbs if you are precise
1 tsp of dried Italian herbs (basil, parsley and thyme)
1 tsp of salt and pepper
Olive oil 

Assembly: 

1.) Crack eggs in a mixing bowl and whisk together, add the rest of the ingredients and whisk. 
2.) Heat a medium frying pan, coating the surface of the pan with olive oil.
3.) When the pan is hot, pour the mixture into the center and tilt the pan, making sure it covers the entire surface. 
4.) Slowly using a spatula, stir vigorously for 5 seconds. As soon as a semi-solid mass begins to form, tilt the pan and move it around until the the rest of the uncooked egg covers it. 
5.) Let the mixture cook for 20 seconds. This is the time you would add any extra ingredients and deliciousness to your omelet. I added mozzarella cheese and ham for my dad. 

What you put inside your omelet is completely up to you. I like goat cheese, arugula, corn and avocado! 

6.) Once you've added your ingredients, or until about 20 seconds have passed, fold over half of the omelet using your spatula, slide the omelet off the pan and onto a plate! Add any remainder ingredients that you might like (extra cheese, herbs, etc..) and serve right away!! 

**By the way-- this is a pretty huge omelet! Just a caution so that youre not shocked when you end up with a omelet that wont fit on your plate :) 

Don't be discouraged if your omelet doesn't turn out perfectly at first! It takes a while to master the art of making a pretty looking omelet...it took me several Sunday breakfasts to really get the hang of it.
It's worth the practice and patience! 


ENJOY MY FRIENDS!
