Omelettes, they are the under estimated 'any time meal', championed by breakfast lovers everywhere. If you're a student or a shoe obsesser... a victim of the credit crunch or just feeling the squeeze this Christmas season - than omelettes are where it is for a cheap, easy, delicious & nutritious meal!
So long as you have eggs and a dash of milk, you can throw in just about anything else that takes your fancy (or that you have tucked away in the back of the fridge).
Making an omelette is simple, even the most novice amongst us can manage (yes, you can do it!) - using ingredients & kitchen implements that you almost certainly already have. Just grab yourself a pan, a bowl & a whisk. Crack your eggs into the bowl and whisk together with a small amount of milk. Throw in your other ingredients, pour into the pan and cook on low heat. Using a spatula to flip & cook through. When cooked to your liking, switch off the heat and enjoy!
Here are some delicious ideas for filler ingredients to add a little substance to your next omelette. Try adding a selection from the following:
Or if savoury isn't quite what you're body is shouting for at the moment, why not give a sweet Apple & Cheese Omelette a go!?
It may not be fancy, but it fills the gap, it's quick & simple to make & it's cheap. It's a TL winner.
Whats your favourite filler when it comes to whipping up an omelette??

Scandalous - I don't eat egg. I don't know what it is (maybe texture) but ever since I was small egg boiled, fried, etc has just made me feel like gagging when I eat it. I don't mind it in cakes, biscuits, etc, but my friends and I joke that I'm a carnivorous vegan LOL

May I suggest milk? It does a wonderful job of making the omelet light and fluffy!

Mmm my favourite is probably a classic Spanish omelette with potato, onion and garlic, with added chorizo for extra Spanish-ness and yummyness!

Sounds great - it is one of my favourites. What a great idea - you have reminded me of something I have forgotten to cook for some weeks.

Omelettes are wicked awesome. The last one I made, quite recently, was probably the best one ever -- diced peppers, onions, tomatoes, and chicken, topped with a little Jack cheese. DELISH!!
