You can keep this omelet light by using all fat free or low fat products. Serving this with fresh fruit (whatever is in season) will complete this dish. It is tasty, very filling. and pretty as a picture with or without the fruit. It is also good with a spoon of low fat yogurt on top. I had some potatoes left over from the night before and just put this together.
