Using a flavored goat cheese (Primo Taglio, a Lucerne brand), in this instance garlic & herb, for an omelette proved to be too strong tasting and overpowered all the herbs in the eggs. I don't think it would have mattered if I used fresh herbs instead of dried. The original recipe from Cooking Light magazine calls for red bell pepper and fresh herbs.
Ingredients
4 eggs
3 oz goat cheese, crumbled
1/2 medium zucchini, thinly sliced
1 tsp dried parsley
1/2 tsp dried tarragon
1 tsp fresh chives, chopped (optional, as garnish)
sea salt, to taste
freshly ground black pepper, to taste
olive oil, for frying
Directions
1. In a bowl, beat eggs, salt and black pepper together.
2. In a small bowl, combine tarragon, parsley and goat cheese.
3. In a non-stick skillet, heat 1 tsp of olive oil and fry zucchini until lightly browned. Remove from heat and set aside.
4. Heat 1 tsp olive oil in the skillet and add half the egg mixture. As the egg cooks, evenly spread on top half the cheese and half the zucchini. Using a spatula, loosen the edges of the omelette before attempting fold it into thirds. Carefully flip the omelette over in the skillet and let it cook for 2-3 minutes more. Remove the omelette to a plate and repeat with the remaining ingredients.
5. Sprinkle fresh chives on top before serving.
