I was just talking to a friend today about how she loves breakfast foods for any meal. I was actually considering making waffles for dinner tonight but then I thought of this bacon pepper omelet (mostly because making an omelet is faster than making waffles). I love a brinner! You know brinner right? Breakfast for dinner! This bacon pepper omelet is delicious and is filling enough for dinner. Omelets are really great for breakfast, lunch or dinner. I always have eggs in my fridge, its a kitchen staple for me. You can't really go wrong with having enough eggs because they are a good source of protein. I originally came up with this bacon pepper omelet by cleaning out my fridge since I already had everything. I compare making omelets with how I make fried rice sometimes, just throw in whatever you've got! Look at how nice and gooey the swiss cheese melted in the omelet... nom nom nom!

Carefully using spatula, roll omelet into thirds (French
