Oven Omelet

Oops!  I forgot to give you this recipe earlier this week. But if you still have some mushrooms, green onions, red pepper, and/or tomatoes around, you should try this.  It's my favorite way to make an omelet with plenty leftover for the next day.  We usually eat it with whole-wheat pancakes and fruit smoothies. And of course you can adjust the vegetables to what you have on hand.  

1/4 cup butter
4-6 green onions
2 cups shredded cheddar
sliced fresh mushrooms
chopped tomatoes
sliced black olives
1/3 cup green pepper
1/3 cup red pepper
12 eggs
1/2 cup milk
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4-1/2 tsp. pepper

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees.  Grease a 9x13 pan (or spray with Pam). 
2. Melt butter over medium heat.  Saute onion and peppers until tender.  Add in mushroom during the last minute.
3.  Spread cheddar in the bottom of the 9x13. Over the top of the cheese, spread onion/peppers/musrooms, along with tomatoes and olives.  
4. In a bowl, scramble eggs together with milk, salt, and pepper.  Pour this egg mixture over the veggies and cheese, but do not stir.  Put it in the oven and bake for 30 minutes, or until cooked through.
