Oven baked Veggie Omelet

Written by Published on Updated on November 10, 2022 in Appetizers

Hi everyone, I am officially done with the painting part of the house, and now I have targeted the Wallpaper project.  I have started Wallpapering the one bedroom, but due to technical difficulties, I had to stop for a few days.  

Who doesn’t love a good Omelet?  I thought you might enjoy this Omelet recipe, it’s different than the usual recipes, because it’s baked.  🙂  I am not sure if anyone has ever tried a oven baked Omelet, if you haven’t then you must try this recipe… it is delicious.  🙂

OVEN BAKED VEGGIE OMELET

Print Recipe Pin Recipe

Ingredients
  

  • 5 Eggs
  • 3 tablespoons Olive Oil
  • 2 Red Bell Peppers Green Red (or which ever you prefer)
  • 1 large Onion chopped
  • 1 Zucchini chopped into slices
  • 1 cup Parmesan Cheese or whichever salty cheese you prefer
  • 3 tablespoons of Mint
  • 1 tablespoon of Oregano
  • Olive Oil
  • Milk
  • Salt
  • Pepper

Instructions
 

  • In a large frying pan add 3 tablespoons of Olive Oil and toss in the peppers, onion, zucchini, mint, and oregano fry just until veggies have softened. I have in the past baked all the ingredients instead of frying but it takes too long for the veggies to soften.
  • Beat eggs with milk, salt and pepper.
  • Toss the cheese into the eggs mix and with a fork or spoon mix.
  • Oil brush your pan before tossing in the veggies, and add in the egg mixture.
  • Pop it in a pre-heated oven and bake at 180 degrees for 20 minutes and until golden brown.

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

        Well I thought about making an omelette but then I noticed some apples and went with making caramel cinnamon apples instead. Almost the same thing, no?? 😉

        I wanted to send you a pic but I guess you can’t do that here. Btw you take beautiful food pics. I don’t take food pics so I hadn’t appreciated until ten seconds ago how completely tricky it is to get the lighting and layout right on these things. I already loved your photos but I have an even greater appreciation of them now. 😉

        I love the pics. Really! I appreciate the little details that make all the difference like the way you added cheese in the right locations to add appeal yet also fill the space around the slices of the omelette that you also placed in just the right way. It has a way of looking natural yet well placed all at the same time. It’s a tricky visual balance.
