Asparagus & Pepper Jack Omelette

Asparagus is one of my favorite vegetables and they are grown here during the summer in New Jersey.  I enjoy eating fresh asparagus in my omelettes along with some cheese.  For my Asparagus & Pepper Jack Omelette I combine onion and asparagus tips with a spicy Pepper Jack cheese.  You'll need to sauté the onions and asparagus in a skillet before adding the egg and milk mixture in this dish.  Most omelettes cook through the best on medium heat.  Stir occasionally while cooking but allow the egg to firm up before turning.  Serve this omelette with my Fried Breakfast Potatoes for a delicious, hearty breakfast.  Happy Cooking!
