I like omelets but don't always have time to stand by the stove. That's why I favor this oven-baked variety that I can quickly pop into the oven at a moment's notice. My family frequently requests this for Sunday brunch. They always empty the dish.—Ellen Bower, Taneytown, Maryland

This was very good. I did sub skim milk for the half-n-half and I used only 4 eggs with 1 cup of Egg Beaters to lighten it up a bit. Since Egg Beaters have more liquid, I only used about a 1/3 cup of the milk. I used 3/4 cup of a frozen grilled pepper blend instead of the onions and pepper and there was no need to saute prior to baking. Very easy and will be making frequently. Worked out well to make for 4 servings and cut up for me to grab a piece each morning during the week.

I made a variation of half this recipe for 2 of us. I used skim milk; doubled the veggies and used cheddar jack cheese. I sauteed the veggies, added the eggs to the skillet and cooked til almost done, then finished under the broiler. I added the cheese to half the 'fromelet' and flipped half the egg over, cut it 2 and served. Sop good and so easy.

Turned out great! I substituted turkey sausage for the ham and also added some chopped mushrooms. I used another reviewers suggestion and sauteed the veggies first.

So easy and sooo good! Made it for a potluck brunch and it was a hit. Only change I made was to saute the onion first to sweeten it up.

This was great. I substituted milk, red pepper and green onion because that's what I had on hand. I will make this again.

I also substituted milk for the half-and-half and I also used bacon instead of sausage. Great recipe!

This is good,used 4 eggs and the equivalant of 4 of egg beaters. Added some mushrooms & a tad of hot sauce. Also used fat free coffee creamer-works well.

This is an excellent recipe, my family loved it. I did the same thing, substituted milk for half-and-half cream.

This is a good recipe. I substituted milk for the half-and-half cream and it turned out well. My casserole took 45 minutes in the oven to be done.
