Omelet is considered a French dish, and every self-respecting chef should be able to cook it correctly. The French never add milk and flour to an omelet, but fry it in butter on one side and wrap it in a roll. I propose to deviate a little from the classic recipe and experiment. Let's make an omelet with vegetables for breakfast - it's a great start to the day. You can add any vegetables to the omelet and it will always turn out delicious. Today we are preparing a vegetable omelet with eggplant, tomatoes and cheese. The dish will turn out to be quite unusual, but at the same time very tasty and satisfying. For a change, you can also add bell peppers, bacon and some herbs.

Of course, such an omelet is not dietary, but sometimes you can pamper yourself with delicious food. Delicate fried eggplants go well with tomatoes and cheese. Consider the type of cheese when preparing your meal. If it is salty, then you don't need to add salt to the omelet. And before serving, you can decorate the omelet with sprigs of dill, parsley or cilantro.

1. Wash the eggplants, remove the stalk and dry with a paper towel. Cut the fruits into rings no more than 1 cm thick. If you are using ripe eggplants, sprinkle them with salt and leave for 30 minutes so that all the bitterness comes out of them. Then rinse under running water and pat dry with a paper towel. With young fruits, such actions do not need to be carried out, because there is no bitterness in them.
