Basil omelette is one of my favorite omelettes. I’ve always love eggs to begin with and often finding ways to utilize this cheap and amazing protein source into our meals. Using basil to make omelette is simply delicious (well, if you enjoy basil that is). I love basil and this omelette couldn’t be easier to make.
