After watching the 2 videos below, I made myself an omelette and it was sooo good!  I used Jamie Oliver's Technique, although Julia Child, in the second video, sure makes it look one could make an omelette in their sleep!

Even though it is early November, my tomato plant is still producing tomatoes, and I have a pepper plant that is still going, too.  I chopped 1/4 of a tomato and 1 small orange sweet pepper, briefly sauteed them in some olive oil, and set them aside to use as filling for my omelet.  I also shredded some cheddar cheese.  It was by far the yummiest omelette I have ever eaten!
