This is a filling for a 4-egg omelet or two 2-egg omelets for when you're having breakfast, brunch or dinner with somebody special. The combination of wine, cream & the delicate taste of Gruyere cheese makes it rich and delicious. The recipe can be doubled.

The gruyere cheese has just enough flavor to meld all the ingrienients into one taste treat. I used half & half. The omelet recipe I used was Easy Omelet for One. Lovely brunch thanks echoecho

This was oh so tasty! I didn't have any cayenne or green onion, so I used finely minced spanish onion. I love MUSHROOMS, and this was a great way to enjoy them! Thank you for the great breakfast treat!

So good! We really enjoyed this breakfast. Had it with some whole grain toast. You really can't go wrong with mushrooms and cheese. We used the shallots.
