frypan2After Thanksgiving (and AGAIN after Christmas), our refrigerator is bursting with leftover holiday food. This year I have a game plan: use the tasty holiday leftovers to make an ultra-delicious omelet . Of course, my brilliant idea was inspired by the fact  there’s going to be nothing else except holiday leftovers to work with. Not that I’m complaining though, I love Thanksgiving  turkey and Christmas ham!

Holiday Omelet Recipe (Directions): Beat eggs in a bowl with salt, pepper and celery leaves, heat oil in a non-stick frying pan over medium heat. The amount of oil varies on how non-stick your non-stick frying pan is. Pour the egg mix when the oil is hot. Swirl it around the pan until it covers the entire pan. Let the eggs cook for a while. When the eggs has cooked a bit, swirl the pan again. When the top of the egg is fairly dry, put your filling on one side of the omelet , leaving space on the edges. Flip the other end of the omelet to cover the fillings. Continue cooking for 10 more seconds then serve.

Ingredients: 3 medium eggs, pinch of salt, freshly ground black pepper, 1/2 tsp chopped celery leaves, filling of your choice, oil (optional)
