Easy Omelette for 2 or 3, Paula Deen Style

Marsha D.'s Note:

This recipe comes from Paula Deen's " Paula's Home Cooking Show" These omelettes look so good and so simple to make that I had to keep her recipe, so I thought I'd save it here and share too. She used re-sealable plastic freezer baggies to prepare the omelettes.

I made this for the DM and used a 3 mix cheese to fill the omelette and served with buttered wholemeal/wholegrain bread and she thoroughly enjoyed her 2 egg cheesy omelette. Thank you Sharon123, made for Recipe Swap #46 November 2010 as a recipenap.

Of course I had to try this. I used mushrooms, cheese and green onion. Did not look like a omelette, but the eggs were very tender and fluffy. It was good. This would be great for someone that could not use any grease or butter.
