Ingredients
- 2eggs
- Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
- 2 to 3teaspoons milk
- 2teaspoons unsalted butter or extra virgin olive oil
- ⅓cup Roasted Winter Vegetable Medley
- 1tablespoon crumbled feta
For Each Omelet
Preparation
- Step 1
Break eggs into a bowl and beat with a fork or a whisk until frothy. Whisk in salt and pepper to taste and 2 to 3 teaspoons milk.
- Step 2
Heat an 8-inch nonstick omelet pan over medium-high heat. Add 2 teaspoons unsalted butter or olive oil. When butter stops foaming or oil feels hot when you hold your hand above it, pour eggs right into the middle of the pan, scraping every last bit into the pan with a rubber spatula. Swirl pan to distribute eggs evenly over the surface. Shake pan gently, tilting it slightly with one hand while lifting up edges of the omelet with the spatula in your other hand, to let eggs run underneath during first few minutes of cooking.
- Step 3
As soon as eggs are set on the bottom, spoon roasted vegetables over the middle of the egg “pancake” and sprinkle feta over vegetables. Jerk pan quickly away from you then back towards you so that the omelet folds over onto itself. If you don’t like your omelet runny in the middle, jerk pan again so that omelet folds over once more. Cook for 30 seconds to a minute longer. Tilt pan and roll omelet out onto a plate.
- Advance preparation: The roasted vegetables will keep for 3 days in the refrigerator.

Made one larger omelet (3 eggs in a 12" skillet) that I split in half to feed two. Just used what veggies I had on hand (1/2 onion, 8 spears asparagus, 1 med. bell pepper, 1 small carrot and one lg. clove garlic) and sauteed all together in a pan with olive oil. Added tsp each of fresh rosemary and thyme and a generous splash of balsamic vinegar. Served with corn chips and adult beverage of choice. Quick, easy and oh so tasty. No need to point out that this becomes a different recipe.
I made a summer version with roasted zucchini, eggplant and garlic. Squeezed the roasted garlic out into the eggs before cooking. Used feta. Seasoned with thyme, sea salt and pepper. Delicious!
This is a great clean-out-the-fridge recipe. Used last night‘s roasted carrots, zucchini, parsnips, onion, and red bell pepper cut into chunks. Threw a bit of Montréal steak spice in with the egg. Substituted Grana Padano for feta. We all loved it.
Tomatoes, mushrooms and onions always hits the mark for me. Day or night.
