Not that I've heard!

Why are these light, tender, egg-based dishes so popular?

Because they're uniquely delicious, that's why.

Omelets are inexpensive and easy to make, and you can have them any time of day! Originally served mainly as a breakfast dish, omelets are now eaten for lunch, dinner and dessert, too.

If you've had lots of omelets before, many were probably based on the original French "omelette." They are browned slightly outside, creamy inside, and full of all kinds of ingredients from vegetables to meat, poultry and herbs.

Some chefs prepare their fillings first, so they are ready when the omelet is hot. But it's not difficult to keep them warm while you add ingredients for fillings after the omelets cook, either.

The eggs used in omelets are whisked with milk and often seasoned with kosher salt and ground pepper if you desire. Unless otherwise stated in a recipe, the whites and yolks are combined well when making an omelet. Read on, and learn more about these mouthwatering recipes!
