All-Cancers Omelette

I tested this omelette with my family including my son who cannot eat meat (so I excluded the bacon for him) and they all said it was good. Maybe this is because it was cold and wet outside and it was a spontaneous decision of mine to do a quick cook up so they were happy for me to cook them a hot meal.

To my taste buds though it did taste good although not hugely filling. We noticed that the onion adds a delicious sweetness to it.

I used four times the ingredients for four of us which made it super easy to prepare with one whole garlic bulb and one whole large red onion rather than fiddling round with portions.
