Serves: 4 - 6
 

Ingredients:

4 slices whole wheat bread -- sturdy white or
1 tablespoons olive oil
1 clove garlic
2 large egg -- or extra-large eggs
1 teaspoon water
1 dash salt
1 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/3 cup mozzarella cheese -- grated
2 tablespoons pesto -- homemade or store-bought
1/2 large Florida tomato -- cut into bite-size chunks
 

Preparation:

1. Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F. Cut the bread into cubes and toss with the oil and garlic in a bowl. Spread the cubes on a baking sheet and toast them for 15 to 25 minutes, until golden brown. Transfer to a plate to cool. 2. When you're ready to make the omelet, have all the ingredients nearby. Crack the eggs into a small bowl, add the water and salt, and beat lightly. 3. Place a nonstick omelet pan over medium-high heat and add the butter. When it starts to sizzle, add the eggs. Stir the eggs with a fork in a circular motion. When the eggs start to set and form curds, spread them out evenly across the bottom of the pan. Immediately turn the heat to very low. 4. Wait a few more seconds and, when the top layer of egg is almost entirely set, sprinkle the cheese over the surface. Dot the surface with the pesto. Scatter the tomatoes and a handful of the croutons over half of the omelet and fold the other half over the filled side. Slide the omelet out of the pan and serve at onc
