Happy Thanksgiving!

My Goodness, it's been a while since I last posted. Why? Just because life made it so.
Here's a summary of the last couple of years:

Bought a home two years ago, moved in with parents while it got built, had a baby meanwhile, and now, finally, it has been a month since we've been in our new home. I didn't think it would be, but it was difficult to share a fridge with two other adults and I just felt "out of it" when it came to passion for cooking. Now that things are back to my way, I am slowly but surely getting back into the swing of things.

We just celebrated Thanksgiving yesterday at my parents house and I brought back some turkey to make a lentil turkey soup tonight (could be a future post), and the rest of the weekend encompassed errands and having my good friend and her hubby over for chicken nachos and to meet our little girl. The chicken nachos were a hit, and I was left with some leftover toppings: chopped tomatoes, red peppers and shallots.

So, in the spirit of Thanksgiving, I used those tasty toppings the next morning to make an omelette and I added spinach for extra nutrition.

I pretty much summed up the ingredients, which you can make as much as you want to taste. I don't think I can really teach you to make an omelette though: it's either you have it or you don't. But honestly, unless you burn the egg, it's hard to mess it up even if it ends up looking scrambled.

So here's a picture of my Thanksgiving omelette, and I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving weekend.
