The Thanksgiving Omelette

Dad said, "I'm calling this the Thanksgiving Omelette. That way, I only have to eat it once a year."

I made this omelette with turkey, stuffing, and Parmesan cheese. And on the side, we had cranberry sauce. On top of the omelette, there was dill. [Mom's note: The stuffing is our favorite Thanksgiving stuffing; it has cornbread, shrimp, green chiles, carrots, celery, onions, and cilantro in it.]

The stuffing, the turkey, the eggs, and the Parmesan cheese.

We're just about to flip this omelette.

The "Bologna Me Away" Omelette

Every Sunday, I make omelettes. Today what we put in the omelettes was sliced leftover turkey meatballs, oregano, and Parmesan cheese. Dad called the omelette "The Bologna Me Away" because it had all those Italian ingredients. He said it was good but that it needed some tomatoes or tomato sauce. Or even salsa.

I'm picking the oregano.

The ingredients.

The Chiles-and-Cheese-with-Needs Omelette

What we put in the omelette was diced green chiles, shredded Monterey jack and cheddar cheeses, and we put herbs in--like we always do. My dad called it The Chiles-and-Cheese-with-Needs because it had chiles and cheese in it but he said, "It needs something else. Maybe bacon."

I'm opening a can of green chiles.

We poured the chiles into a strainer to get all of the juice out.

The herbs we used were parsley and chives.

When we put in the cheese, I saw that we had more than we needed,
so I ate some. These are the cheeses that we used.

We put the omelettes on the plates so that we could make the other ones.
We put the plates in the microwave so they stayed hot.

The Peacemaker

Daddy decided to name this omelette The Peacemaker because the ingredients don't look like they go together, but when you eat them, they do. The ingredients are artichoke hearts, grated extra sharp cheddar cheese, salsa, and dill.  And eggs.

I was so hungry today that I almost didn't have enough energy make the omelettes. I was like, "Gimme some cheddar! Gimme some cheddar!" when I was grating the cheese. And I could not wait for those omelettes to be done. When they were finally done, I dove in. So did Ollie and Mom and Dad.

We spilled some egg down the front of the stove and onto the floor, but my cat Skippy licked it up.
