Mad Hatter's Wild Beast Omelet

This recipe is handy for making a tasty dish from your leftover wild game, but you can use any shredded or chunked meat you have at home, whether it is bear, deer, beef, turkey, chicken or duck.I n a pinch, even hamburger will do.

Salmon is also tasty in this dish, but some other fish meats may fall apart. We can call the dish made from any meat source "wild beast" for the kids.
