MUSHROOM OMELETTE
The measurements for this recipe are guesstimates as I don't generally *measure* when I'm cooking, so it may be necessary to add more or less for personal preference. I also only used enough dried green pepper for one omelette, as my dad can't eat them!! So if it is desired for both, the amount will have to be increased. (If you can't find dried, chopped regular would also work fine, but might be easier to mix with mushrooms).
