I originally tagged this for my breakfast but it ended up as DM's dinner as we were having a hot curry which she hates but she loved this omelet and well it contained some of her favourites, smoked salmon, cream cheese and eggs (unfortunately my chives took a dive between tagging and making so had to sub finely spring onion for the chives - just mix them into the cream cheese) and oh she loved it so much that the toast (wholemeal/wholegrain buttered was pushed to one side and not eaten). Thank you lazyme, made for Photo Tag game.
