The 'everything' omelette

[namechangedasouting]

Moving house at the end of the week, have been trying to eat through food in freezer and fridge to save having to move it. Tonight I 'discovered' the everything omelette. Literally cooked up all the leftover meat and veg in the fridge, covered it with egg and cheese and... YUM!

How have I only just discovered this.

YANBU - welcome to the everything omelette appreciation club

YABU - crawl back into your hole you feral human

Need to know what was in it exactly!

Ooh yes, tell us what you had!

Steak and chicken leftover from yesterday's BBQ, plus a couple of rashers of bacon.
Peppers, tomatoes, chopped broccoli, peas, sweetcorn, artichoke hearts
Topped with eggs, cheddar and mozzarella.

It was 10/10!!!

Ooohhhh I do this but bake it. So kind of like a weird quiche.

My best one is the Christmas leftover egg thing. All the stuff, all the bits of cheese, eggs, into oven. DELICIOUS.

Bloody hell, that sounds amazing! All that veg too, mmm...

You gonna get 8/10 just for the artichoke hearts, so you couldn’t lose, really!

We have a “forage” night once a week (at least 🤣) and it always ends up being everything into a dish, beaten eggs and cheese on top - into the oven and bake 👍🏻

YANBU then! Sounds lush!

This is my DH's breakfast. Every day.

Sounds gross I can't get my head around eating so many different types of meat at once!

We do this with pasta too: we call it fridge pasta. Odds and ends of veg, leftover roast meat, bit of chorizo, a rasher or two of bacon, end of a block of cheese, dregs of a carton of cream... Add in a jar of sauce if need be. It uses up all the bits that aren't quite enough to use on their own and it's never not good.

Don't ever order a mixed grill then, @eatsleepread or your head will explode like an overripe zit

I add potatoes - oven bake and call it a frittata!

@sadpapercourtesan

Huuuurl! I can think of not much worse, so don't you worry

Fridge omlet/ soup / pie, fried fridge etc got our family through many a meal.

Sounds great OP (but I am afraid I am going to mark you down slightly for the inclusion of sweetcorn).

I am another who does similar with all the leftover meat, veggies, cheese and added pasta.

Oven baked weird quiche = frittata

Ya absolutely nbu. I'm another one who does this with pasta, having it now. Pasta with muchrooms, peppers, onion, and yes SWEETCORN, all fried. Mustard mixed in and an optional sprinkle of cheese.

Well I tried it - rather unsucessfully to be honest, so don't do what I did and throw in a bag of ice cubes

That sounds epic.

You had a bbq a few days before you move house? YABU and mental

Had a sprout omelette the other day. Amazing

On the basis that I hate omelettes I would have to say YABU anyway but yours sounds absolutely grim
Sorry op, I mean you enjoyed it which is the important thing!!

Plus you’re eating up leftovers and random stuff so minimising food wastage which are all big plus points!

Sprouts? At the end of April? Weirdo.

We had chuck-it-all-in-and-hope-for-the-best paella yesterday. Fab.
