    Caramelized Onion Spinach and Mushroom Omelette

    Hello Everyone!  Do you every have breakfast for dinner?  I do, actually quite often.  Breakfast food can be fast, nutritious, and delicious!  And I don’t know about you guys, but I am always rushing early in the morning and don’t spend too much time making a real breakfast, so the only time I make an elaborate breakfast, like an omelette, is in the evening. Today I am sharing a breakfast omelette recipe that I like to make myself for dinner.  Although I do think I am a pretty good cook, unfortunately my omelette making skills are a little bit lacking.  Part of this may be due to the fact that…
