MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06
 
      Title: Cauliflower And Feta Omelet
 Categories: Eggs, Vegetables, Cheese
      Yield: 2 servings
 
      5 lg Eggs
  2 1/2 tb Extra-virgin olive oil
    1/2 md Head cauliflower; into 1"
           - florets
      1 cl Garlic clove; minced
    1/2 c  Crumbled feta
    1/4 c  Packed flat-leaf parsley
           - leaves
 
  Little bites of cauliflower add wonderful texture to this
  open-face omelet; salty-tangy feta gives it character.
  
  Beat eggs with 1/4 teaspoon salt.
  
  Heat oil in a 10-inch heavy nonstick skillet over medium-
  high heat until it shimmers, then sauté cauliflower until
  browned and tender, 5 to 9 minutes. Reduce heat to medium,
  then add garlic, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/8 teaspoon pepper
  and sauté 1 minute.
  
  Pour eggs over cauliflower. Cook, lifting edges to let
  uncooked egg run underneath and shaking skillet occasionally
  to loosen omelet, until almost set, 4 to 5 minutes. Slide out
  onto a large plate. Put skillet over omelet and, using pot
  holders, firmly hold plate and skillet together, then invert
  omelet back into skillet and cook 1 to 2 minutes. Slide out
  onto plate and sprinkle with feta and parsley.
