Omelets are my favorite breakfasts because they are like blank canvases to me. I can customize to my mood and taste. The best part about this versatile breakfast is that it can be prepared quickly. This time, I wanted a vegetarian option and decided to make a better-for-me omelet filled with tasty zucchini and a little spice from freshly sliced jalapeños. This delicious breakfast is perfect for an early morning breakfast or a late Mother’s Day brunch. Pair it with a refreshing glass of orange juice, a mimosa or a cup of strong black coffee. It’s a great outdoor meal for everyone to enjoy.
