Mushroom Swiss Omlette

Here's what you'll need to make this mushroom-swiss omlette:

4 eggs (beaten)
1/4 cup milk
1/2 cup butter
1/4 tomato (diced)
1 cup sliced, fresh mushrooms
3 slices of swiss cheese
Salt and pepper to taste

In a saucepan, melt 1/4 cup butter over medium heat. Add mushrooms, tomato, salt, and pepper. Cook for 5 minutes or until mushrooms are soft.

In another saucepan, melt 1/2 cup butter over LOW heat. Make sure the butter evenly coats the bottom and sides of the pan. Otherwise, the omlette will stick to the pan and break.

In a small bowl, whisk the eggs with 1/4 cup milk. Pour this slowly into the saucepan on low heat. Let it sit for 1 or 2 minutes. Don't touch it, or you'll break the omlette.

When the egg starts to harden a bit, gently scrape between the egg and the pan with a rubber spatula so the egg doesn't stick to the pan. Let it sit for a few more minutes on low heat, making sure it isn't sticking to the pan. This is why making omlettes is tricky, but you'll get the hang of it. :)

Lay the 3 slices of swiss cheese on top of the egg. Add the the sauteed mushrooms and tomato. Let it sit for a couple of minutes.

Gently fold the omlette in half and serve.

(Don't get discouraged if you can't make a perfect omlette. Like anything, the more you practice, the better you'll get.)

Egg, Sausage, and Cheese Breakfast Burrito

Get your morning off to a good start. Here's what you'll need to make this filling breakfast burrito:

1 extra-large flour tortilla
3 eggs
2 breakfast sausage links (sliced, pre-cooked)
1/2 cup finely diced onion
1/2 cup finely diced green pepper
1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese (or more if you want it extra cheesey)
1/8 cup parsley
1/4 cup butter
Salt and pepper to taste.
1/4 cup milk (optional)

In a saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Add onion, green pepper, salt, pepper, sliced breakfast sausage, and parsley. Cook until vegetables are soft (about 5 minutes).

Increase the heat to high and scramble the eggs (in the same saucepan). Add 1/4 cup of milk if desired.

Reduce the heat to low and sprinkle cheddar cheese on. Cook for 1 additional minute, so the cheese can melt.

Lay out the tortilla and add the contents of the saucepan. Roll it up tightly and enjoy.

(Note: Crumbled bacon can be substituted for sausage, if desired).
