bell peppers, onion & tomato
broccoli & black olive

Add some S&P, and a little dried thyme, and you're good to go!

INGREDIENTS
* 1 small onion, chopped
* 1/4 cup chopped green pepper
* 1 tablespoon butter or stick margarine
* 1 small zucchini, chopped
* 3/4 cup chopped tomato
* 1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
* 1/8 teaspoon pepper

* 1/4 cup water

* 1/4 cup egg substitute
* 1/2 cup shredded reduced-fat Cheddar cheese, divided
DIRECTIONS
1. In a large nonstick skillet, saute onion and green pepper in butter until tender. Add the zucchini, tomato, oregano and pepper. Cook and stir for 5-8 minutes or until vegetables are tender and liquid is nearly evaporated. Set aside and keep warm. In a mixing bowl, beat egg whites, water, cream of tartar and salt until stiff peaks form. Place egg substitute in another bowl; fold in egg white mixture.
2. Pour into a 10-in. ovenproof skillet coated with nonstick cooking spray. Cook over medium heat for 5 minutes or until bottom is lightly browned. Bake at 350 degrees F for 9-10 minutes or until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean. Spoon vegetable mixture over one side; sprinkle with half of the cheese. To fold, score middle of omelet with a sharp knife; fold omelet over filling. Transfer to a warm platter. Sprinkle with remaining cheese. Cut in half to serve.

I like green pepper, onion and mushroom with cheese and top it with warm salsa. Wonderful Spanish omelet. Another omelet tip...to your egg batter, add 2 tbsp. water instead of cream or milk. Your omelet will be light and fluffy.
