Caprese Avocado Omelette
Description
In the Caprese Avocado Omelette, beaten eggs combine with milk, salt, and pepper and cook gently to a soft, tender consistency. Mozzarella cheese is sprinkled onto the omelette halfway through cooking, melting to add a mild creaminess. Once cooked, the omelettes are topped with quartered cherry tomatoes, fresh chopped basil, and thin avocado slices. These fresh ingredients add bright, slightly tangy, herbaceous, and creamy notes.
The layering of fresh basil and avocado on the warm omelette highlights the Caprese salad flavors in a new form. This omelette can be served for breakfast, brunch, or a simple light lunch. It pairs nicely with toasted bread or a side salad for a balanced meal.
