I can't wait! I am going to be making this for lunch! :)

The down side is that i've got lots of errands to do today.

Laundry, dishes, shopping... :(

:O That looks super fancy.

When I make omelettes, it's usually just the "folded in half egg circle with stuff in the middle." The "stuff" being either just cheese, or leftovers from various other cooking projects.

lol, that's what I do too.

Well, I am off. Be back in a few hours.

Have fun. :)

I have never successfully made an omelette.

It's a skill you learn, apparently. My mom taught me when I was 10 or so. (She said something like, "okay, you're old enough to use the kitchen, you're gonna learn to cook things yourself.")

My girlfriend cooks all kinds of things. Very tasty stuff. But she can't do omelettes, for some reason.

Well that sounds like me, I love cooking and baking but the idea of omelettes is scary.

I need to find a better method on how to cook an omelet.

Because all I have been doing so far is...making a giant egg patty (cook one side, then flip to other side so both sides are cooked).
Dump toppings on top. Then cover with a lid to melt the cheese.

I generally mix 2 eggs together in a bowl, add a bit of seasoning, pour that into the pan, let it cook enough to not be see-through, then immediately put the fillings on it (cheese and whatever else) before it's cooked all the way. Let it sit a bit longer, then fold it in half. Flip that a few times, and call it good.

Wait wait wait...people can make omelettes?

What, did you think they were grown fully formed and cooked? lol

Okay so the recipe that I have been using calls for 3 eggs.

I doubled the recipe and ended up using 6 eggs.

Do you know how hard it is to flip 6 eggs all at once? O.O

I somehow did it though. XD

-----------
Next time, I just have to fold over the egg patty in half and I will have an official omelet. xD

Oh gosh, that's a lot of egg.

EGGS!

I'm still full from brunch...but always open to talk about food. >___>;

We're having chili for dinner.

I like to make mine extra fancy by adding sour cream, onions and cheese.

I'm not sure what we are having. It's a special day for me today...so my boyfriend is going to get or make something yummy for dinner. :3

I hope your chili is scrumptious.

I'll be honest, last time I had an omelette, I'm pretty sure I was in a single digit age. And pretty sure it was some sort of prepackaged travesty. I guess I just haven't really encountered them since?

@Ireland
Congratulations on your special day!

That's so sweet of your boyfriend!

My husband hates cooking so the most I get out of him is frozen pizza, mac and cheese, or hamburger helper. XD

this is the funniest quote of the day

Glitch - I totally agree. XD

Occasionally, I say witty things.

Usually I just muddle through, making lame jokes.

But those lame jokes are sometimes the best jokes. :p-cute:

Hey, at least you can tell jokes.

I can't tell a joke to save my life. XD

I find myself being a distraction at times...but I ADORE making people laugh. I really do. Laughter is really healing and special.

It's like a miracle drug! It can make all your problems go away (if only for a moment). XD

hello everyone. It's been a while since I was here.

Hello and welcome back, Rose. :)

It sure can! It can bring me out of being anxious as well. Which is a total blessing.



Hello Rose! :p-grin:

You know the strange thing is....I want to roast another turkey even though I just had turkey a couple of weeks ago.

Someone tell me that I'm crazy... XD

I get fancy when I make my omelets. >.>

I put the eggs in a bowl and add a little bit of milk (for creaminess) and water (for fluffiness) and seasonings (pepper and sage with a bit of salt is a good choice but I vary it up based on my mood) and whip it up really good, then I mix some of the cheese in with the eggs (so that the flavor is well-distributed) and possibly bacon and green onions before pouring the batter into the skillet.

Since I mix all of the good stuff into the batter, I don't have a "fold stuff inside" step generally, but I'll top it with more cheese, or with sour cream, or with more bacon or green onions, or whatever I'm in the mood for.

Omelets are flexible!

EDIT: ... I should get a couple habaneros from my garden and make an omelet for myself soon.

You're not crazy, i LOVE BAKING TURKEY!

we had turkey last night XD

Wow, look at all those fancy toppings! Mine had steak, bell peppers, white onions, mushrooms, and tomatoes! I should switch it up and try it with bacon next time!

That's a great idea about mixing the ingredients with the egg!


My recipe called for me to whisk 3 eggs with 1 tablespoon of sour cream.

Thank God we had chili the next day because I didn't know what to do with a full 16 oz tub of sour cream....

YOu bake cookies and use the sour cream in the cookie batter so they are more delicious.

That's a great idea! I need to find a cookie recipe that uses a lot of sour cream! XD

Wow, thank you so much for the cookie recipes!!!!!

My husband loves cookies! He is going to be one happy man! XD

Yay! Always glad to help please another manbeast.

I took a nap and felt like crap when I woke up. But now I feel much better!

beat undertale today.

gotta say, as a pacifist in real life, I love any game that you can beat without killing anything.
