Microwave Crusty Western Omelette
The use of crumbled crackers makes this a lot more like a quiche without the hassle of making pastry. It is a little drier than other omelettes so ketchup helps to moisten this one.
The Stuff
2 eggs
1 shaved broccoli spear
chopped ham
4 whole wheat soda crackers
red pepper
onion
What To Do
Take a stainless steel fork and wipe a dab of margarine or butter all around the inside of a microwave safe dish. Break the two eggs into the dish and mix it up a little with the same fork. Cut the ham up into little pieces and throw it into the dish. Slice the red pepper into really thin pieces. Shave some thin pieces of onion and throw them both into the dish. Crumble the crackers on top of the mixture.
Cook on medium for about 3-4 minutes. The mixture should still be just a little runny and let it stand for a minute or two.
Throw the dish and the knife and fork into the sink. In my case, the good news is, once more, they won’t be lonely.
