Rice Paper Omelette

I saw lots of people talking about making omelettes with veggies and other ingredients cooked on rice paper. I got creative making this Rice Paper Omelette, even though I was nervous about breaking the rice paper since I had never used it before. But in the end, everything went smoothly, and the dish turned out delicious.

You can add any veggies you like, such as bell peppers, tomatoes, and even cooked potatoes. You can also include spinach and other herbs, which I sometimes do. Personally, I prefer just tomatoes and cheese, and occasionally I add ham as well.

For using rice paper, make sure to warm it in warm water for about 10 seconds until it’s soft, being careful not to break it. Also, add some oil to the skillet before cooking. For those who prefer not to use milk, simply omit it—that’s all!

You can enjoy this Rice Paper Omelette for breakfast or as a snack, and it also makes a light dinner when you add some meat to it.
