Baked Vegetable Omelet Recipe

Written by Published on Updated on October 10, 2022 in Breakfast, Brunch, Dinner, Lunch, Main dishes, Vegetables

Hey there foodies,

Omelets were only for breakfast in the past and still are don’t get me wrong.  Omelets have evolved into something more than just a breakfast meal but a meal for lunch and dinner.  These quick recipes are a great idea when you really can’t think of anything to put together quickly.

I used frozen vegetables for this recipe, but you can use fresh ones if you have some in your garden or store-bought.  The supermarket was all out of peppers so I remembered the frozen pack I had at home. I threw in a few eggs and fresh dill (of course there would be dill) and popped into the oven and I was done for dinner.  I also added cubed potatoes that were marinated with olive oil and smoked paprika pepper to give the omelet a smokey taste.  But you can use any shape or size of potatoes in this omelet.

I’ve been daydreaming lately and doing a lot of it.  I think I have lost my mojo and can’t get back into the swing of things.  I keep spending time looking at travel vloggers and where they are traveling off to this summer.  The latest videos that I have been watching are about Italy, the Almafi Coast.  Anyway else a daydreamer?  Where would you like to be now?

Have a nice weekend everyone!! 🙂

Welcome to a small corner of my Greek Heritage. Growing up in New York from Greek parents, was a challenge of its own...but the traditional food, tastes and aromas that my mother cooked always travelled me back to Greece. My mother is a wonderful cook, our house would always have that smell of home cooked food. I remember very clearly that we were only allowed fast food, once a week, that was a huge day for myself and my brother. Jumping up and down in the back car seat, laughing, just being kids. It is true that we all like to eat different foods, taste, smell, even try food that looks different than our regular meals at home and I think that is so natural. In my teens, I was not really into cooking, I enjoyed my magazines after school, listening to music, and just taking a breather. There were times that I would glance at some of my mom's recipes, more out of curiosity than to actually try to cook them. At that time I did not realise that cooking would become my passion one day. Slowly, I would start to look into my mom's recipes a bit more each day and I started to find it interesting as a hobby. Each month I would go into our neighborhood bookstore and pick up my monthly book, until one day I decided to stroll over into the cooking section. That summer was the first time I actually bought a cooking magazine....and I loved it. Cooking and baking started out as a hobby, but now after many years it is my passion. Exploring the cuisines, the spices, the oils, the scents, the variety of smells and tastes that exist. It was and still is an amazing journey without limits. So, come along with me on this adventure, and I hope you enjoy my recipes. Sophie
