Happy Leftovers
It all started last week. I made scallion pancakes. I was going to use a mix of onions. The shallots I had went bad and were not used. My red onion was huge, but I sliced and cooked it up anyway. Then I sliced and cooked the scallions. Since scallions were the star I used them all and there was only enough room left for a tiny bit of cooked red onions. So I bought two packages of puff pastry with the intent of only using one of them and saving the other for whatever future. I also bought already shredded Gruyère/Swiss cheese. Two 6 oz packages. Figure I would make an onion tart.
I used up all the onions and cheese. What I didn’t realize is the box of puff pastry comes with two sheets of puff pastry and I wanted only one. So I asked Google what should I do? Seemed the most logical answer was cheesy bread sticks. Layer out the sheet, egg washed it, sprinkled on spices and cheese, cut them into strips and twisted them and baked them.
So by now you think I would be done. I still had some egg was and cheese left. It wasn’t really enough egg to make an omelet, so I added another egg and some spices. Then I scrambled the mixture and cooked on the stove top, flipped, added some cheese, flipped the omelet onto itself and plated it. May be the best omelet I have ever made.
Truth be told I still have about three ounces left. Hmmm…what to do? 😺
