Western Omelette
This Western Omelette is Stuffed full of potatoes, onions, green pepper, bacon and with two kinds of cheese. My husband cooked his potatoes and veggies on the grill before he made this wonderful omelette. (Vegetable link below) This is a great way to use up those leftover potatoes and vegetables from supper last night. You can use any cooked potato or vegetables you would like making it easy to make everyone’s favorite omelette!

fold it on top of the potatoes and veggies.

Would love for you to check out todays blog post; butterfliesandboundaries.wordpress.com/2018/09/01/life/
Thank you this is my husbands creation!
I love omelettes! <3 <3
There are so many ways to fill them! My favorite is ham and cheese! Enjoy your long weekend Valerie!
You too! I am going to cook a Chicken Pot Pie. I have never made one before!
Good luck I’m sure it will turn out wonderful!
This is the only way I will eat eggs – in an omelette. Good reason to save some veggies from dinner the night before 🙂 Along with lamb kebobs I am grilling zucchini and red onions tonight …
Now that sounds good! Thanks!
A trick I learned while restaurant cooking, is to flip the eggs over after they set before adding the filling. This way the inside of the egg is guaranteed to be cooked and you won’t have to worry about a runny center 🙂
Looks yummy
Wow – so when is your Cooking Book coming out? I mean you have like 3000+ followers – it is time to approach a publisher 🙂

It’s 6AM here, and seeing this is making me hungry. Father’s Day in Australia – so guess what’s for breakfast.
Aw what a great Father’s Day surprise! You’re the best!
Thank you!
We used to eat a Western Sandwich with just deviled ham in the omelette/scrambled egg, in between toast. Maybe that was a Canadian treat?
OMG that sounds wonderful! I have never heard of this before. I love ham and cheese omelette but never thought about putting it in toast! Thanks something new to try!
I liked it – one can of deviled ham mixed in with the eggs. I’m not much of a cook, but maybe I could handle that. 🙂 (a one-can wonder)
Omelettes are the essential vehicle for eating leftovers. Delicious.
Definitely! Thanks Matt!
Yum! Such a wonderful recipe!
Thank you Lisa!
Looks delish!!
Thank you!
Welcome!!
Hmm I should try that 🙂 Looks yummy
Great for leftover veggies! Thanks!
I love omelettes, but I have never put potatoes in them. I might have to add them next time.
I never have either, this is my husbands omelette. My favorite is ham and cheese and I have never tried any other. Guess I should spread my wings…hahaha
I usually make either ham and cheese, or Western.
Thank you Diane.
I am going to mine into your recipes for trying them myself.🌻
This recipe is something new for me to try… yummy 😋
