CHEESE AND CHIVE OMELET
I wanted to use up some egg whites, chives and left over cheese I had in the refrigerator so adapted this recipe from Bon Appetit (November 2006)with my changes. The original recipe used whole eggs and cheddar cheese.

Steps:
- Whisk together the eggs, egg whites, chives, salt and pepper (I used a lot of pepper) in a bowl.
- In a large skillet melt butter over medium heat.
- Add egg mixture to pan, cooking for a few minutes until almost set, lifting sides so egg mixture can run under.
- Grate (or sprinkle) cheese over top of eggs (I grated it right over the eggs) and cook a few more minutes until cheese melts.
- Fold 1/3 of the omelet over the center and then the other side over the center.
- Turn omelet onto plate and cut in half or thirds.

ANTONI POROWSKI'S FRENCH OMELET WITH CHEESE AND CHIVES
There's nothing quite like a classic omelet. On Netflix's "Queer Eye," Antoni Porowski, the food-focused member of the Fab 5, teaches the people he helps make over how to nourish themselves in an accessible way. This simple but sophisticated recipe, adapted from his cookbook, "Antoni in the Kitchen," follows in that vein. It requires few ingredients and a dextrous hand: You'll want to consider your ingredients carefully, and take care to not overmix the eggs. Keep it simple, or add mix-ins. Serve it alone, or pair it, as he suggests, with a favorite salad.

Steps:
- Whisk eggs in a medium bowl until well combined and smooth, taking care not to whip in too much air. The point is to combine the yolks and whites very well.
- In a small nonstick skillet over medium-low, heat 1 tablespoon butter until the butter has melted and just begins to foam.
- Pour in the eggs. Working quickly with one hand, gently move the pan in a circular motion over the heat (this will keep the eggs moving and evenly cooking). With your other hand, use a small rubber spatula (or chopsticks) to stir the eggs in a loose figure-eight pattern, creating small curds and scraping down the side of the skillet as you go. Continue until the eggs are mostly cooked through but just a little runny on top, 2 to 3 minutes.
- Remove the pan from the heat and sprinkle the omelet with a pinch of salt, then sprinkle the cheese down the center. Gently shake the pan so that the omelet shifts toward the side of the pan opposite the handle and up the side of the pan. The part of the omelet above the edge of the pan should fold back over on itself - use your rubber spatula to give it a hand, if it doesn't.
- Slide 1 tablespoon of butter underneath the omelet that's still in the pan. (This will help keep the omelet tender and soft - and it tastes really good.)
- Using the spatula, roll up the omelet, then flip it seam-side down onto a warm serving plate. Slide the remaining 1/2 tablespoon butter across the top, then sprinkle with a pinch each of salt and pepper and the chives. Serve hot.

MUSHROOM OMELET WITH CHIVES
Mushrooms are the most versatile of ingredients, with a meaty texture and a rich, deep flavor ideal for vegetarian dishes. When raw, they're elegant and delicious; when cooked, they become substantial. They are as welcome in a classic French omelet as they are in an Asian stir-fry. Mushrooms also are a nutritional bargain. Two ounces of sliced white mushrooms - about a cup - contain only 15 calories, and they are among the best dietary sources of B vitamins. Best of all, there are just so many mushroom dishes to try. This savory omelet is great for dinner or for brunch. If I'm making it for two, I make one large omelet in a 10-inch pan. It's just as easy as making two individual omelets, and both servings are ready at the same time.

Steps:
- Trim off the ends of the mushrooms, and cut into thick slices. Heat a large, heavy frying pan over medium-high heat, and add 1 tablespoon of the olive oil. Add the shallot, and cook, stirring, until it begins to soften, two or three minutes. Add the mushrooms, and cook, stirring or tossing in the pan, for a few minutes, until they begin to soften and sweat. Add salt to taste and the garlic, and cook, stirring often, until the mushrooms are tender, about five minutes. Stir in the parsley, season to taste with salt and pepper, and remove from the heat.
- If making individual omelets: Heat an 8-inch nonstick omelet pan over medium-high heat. Break 2 eggs into a bowl, and beat with a fork or a whisk until frothy. Add salt and freshly ground pepper to taste, and 2 teaspoons milk. Whisk in half the chives. Add 2 teaspoons of the olive oil to the pan. When the pan feels hot as you hold your hand above it, pour in the eggs, scraping every last bit into the pan. Tilt the pan to distribute the eggs evenly over the surface. Tilt it slightly again, and gently shake with one hand while lifting up the edges of the omelet with the spatula in your other hand so as to let the eggs run underneath during the first few minutes of cooking. Spread half the mushrooms down the middle of the eggs. Top with half the cheese. As soon as the eggs are set on the bottom (the top will still be runny), jerk the pan quickly away from you then back towards you so that the omelet folds over on itself. Shake in the pan for another minute if you don't like the omelet soft on the inside; for a moist omelet, tilt the pan at once and roll out onto a plate. Keep warm in a low oven while you repeat with the remaining eggs and herbs, and serve.
- If making 1 large omelet, heat a 10-inch nonstick pan over medium-high heat. Beat all 4 eggs in a bowl with the milk, salt and pepper, and the chives. Heat the remaining tablespoon of olive oil in the pan, and follow the instructions for the 2-egg omelet, pouring all of the eggs into the pan. The eggs will take longer to set, and you may want to flip the omelet in the pan again after it's rolled, if the middle seems too runny. Roll the finished omelet onto a platter, or cut in half in the pan, and serve.
- Add 2 teaspoons of the olive oil to the pan. When the pan feels hot as you hold your hand above it, pour in the eggs, scraping every last bit into the pan.

HERBED CREAM CHEESE OMELET
Somehow, when cream cheese is mixed with herbs and melted in an omelet, it acquires a wonderful taste that you wouldn't associate with cream cheese.

Steps:
- Mix the cream cheese with the cilantro in a bowl, adding salt and pepper to taste.
- Heat one-quarter of the butter in a well-seasoned omelet pan or 8 inch non-stick frying pan over medium-high heat. When the butter is hot and bubbling, swirl it around in the pan.
- Just before the butter begins to brown, beat 2 of the eggs and pour into pan. Lower the heat.
- After 10 seconds or so, the omelet will coagulate. Push the omelet to one side of the pan with a spoon or spatula, and let the raw egg run over the cleared skillet. Repeat this one more time, then take the skillet off the heat.
- Dab one quarter of the herbed cream cheese along the middle of the omelet from one side to the other. Season the omelet with additional salt and pepper to taste. If it has not completely set, place the pan over medium heat for a half minute longer. When the omelet is set, slide it from the pan onto a plate so that the omelet rolls up and the herbed cream cheese runs along the length of the roll. Serve it right away. Make three more omelets the same way, making sure the pan and butter get good and hot before adding the beaten eggs. Serve each one as soon as it is cooked.

Steps:
- Crack the eggs in a bowl and whisk them together with a splash of milk. In a separate bowl, mix chives with cream cheese, add ground pepper to taste, and combine. Set aside remaining leftover chives for garnish.
- Heat up your frying pan with a knob of butter over medium heat. Once the butter has fully melted, pour half of the egg mixture into the pan. Slightly whisk the egg in the pan until it starts to set so that it cooks more evenly.
- Once the egg mixture has set, flip the omelet and cook the other side until it is slightly golden brown.
- Once the omelet is cooked, fold it in the pan, then transfer to a plate.
- Repeat the process for the second omelet.
- Grind some salt & pepper over the omelets and top the omelets with small pieces of the smoked salmon. Then place a scoop of cream cheese on top of the smoked salmon. Finish the dish off by sprinkling the remaining diced chives over the omelet.
- Serve.
