Ingredient: Crimini Mushrooms

Mushroom and Blue Cheese Omelet

Cooking for one is what you make it. You can settle for boring or you can romance your plate with delicious food that you love. An omelet can be boring or it can be a delectable taste treat. I opted for the latter.

My omelet was filled with earthy Crimini Mushrooms, subtle shallot, and fragrant garlic. DIGITAL CAMERAJoined by Blue Cheese it  was a sophisticated yet comforting supper. Too bad I was the only one to enjoy it.
