Caramelised Onion & Goats Cheese Omelette

Add your choice of herbs. Lately been using grindings of a fabulous rosemary and sage blend in a grinder. This was very different for me, compared to the omelettes normally eat. But after a couple of bites, it grew. Followed the directions as written but had to sub regular onion for the red and left out the rosemary, but used all other optional ingredients for the omelette.

Made the omelette as a special treat since it was hubby's day off and could linger over breakfast. Used 3 fresh herbs - rosemary, marjoram, and thyme - and did use the salad greens-forgot the lemon zest even though had it at the ready. Used some fleur de sel for the salt to really make it a French omelette. And since was having this for breakfast. Next time would completely leave out the sugar, as the caramelised onions are sweet enough.

Served this omelette for brunch today. Liked the tangy goat cheese with the caramelised onion, served it on top of the spinach. Used Thyme. Everything went well together, very flavorful. Made for, Omelette Challenge, Sultans of Spice.
