The Powerhouse Omelet
This Will Stick to Your Ribs
Well, I don't know if I want this sticking to anything, but it will fill you up. I usually walk six miles a day, and something good and hearty is important to my well-being. If this can keep me happy for four hours, I must be doing something right. After this meal, along with a steaming cup of coffee, I can handle a 3-mile hike with the camera for a photo shoot, and my stomach isn't growling. This is one of my own personal recipes, and remember that eggs aren't just for breakfast anymore.
