Southern Omelet

A classic Southern omelet relies on whatever fresh ingredients are sitting in the refrigerator. This plant-based version brings together diced potatoes, colorful bell peppers, and sweet yellow onions for a hearty morning meal. Liquid vegan eggs and dairy-free cheese create a soft, satisfying texture that rivals the traditional diner favorite. Serve it hot for a quick weekday breakfast or a relaxed weekend brunch.
