Welcome!

We are two chicks who decided to share some fun with food!
We plan on choosing some recipes and having a bit of fun with them! Sara will make the original recipe and maybe have some low-fat options and I, Dawn will take the recipe and tweak it if I can to become kidney and diabetic friendly (because, yes, I am both diabetic-type 2 and have PKD). Hopefully we will share some delicious and healthier versions of our recipes!

Dawn's Version of an Omelette

Original Recipe: Omelette

*Pic coming soon*

We have a flat griddle so I like to make a long skinny omelette and then roll it.
I mix however many eggs I need (usually 2 per person) OR whatever is available ;)
Pour it on the hot pan (it has to be hot so the egg will start cooking immediately so as to be able to keep pushing the edge so it doesn't spill over into the grease drain tray). :S
I will then grate cheese and sprinkle over flat omelette (peppers and/or mushrooms can also be added but usually when I make one with mushroom I cook it a bit first-that's just how I like it)
Then when I'm sure the bottom is cooked enough to be solid and lifted I will lift the length of the flipper over and again until I've rolled the omelette into a "log".
Cook a bit longer, flip over onto other side and cook to brown and then serve. :)

Diabetic Version: use low fat or light versions of cheese with whole wheat toast ;)

Kidney Friendly Version: add red peppers and use low fat or light cheese...
mozzarella or monterey jack work for me ;)
