This is a good basic recipe for a puffy omelette...or a souffle for one. But unless you are really cutting calories, it needs some serious flavor boost. Leftover lunch meat ham, a more interesting cheese shredded and shaved on top, fresh herbs, grape tomatoes sliced in half & mixed. Go nuts - it will only improve things!
