    • diced heirloom tomatoes, diced sweet onions, shredded Monterey Jack cheese

Heat margarine in small saute pan over medium-low heat. Beat together the eggs and chip dip until foamy. Pour egg mixture into pan and cook until set, lifting edges to allow uncooked egg to run under the set egg. Sprinkle half of omelette with fillings and fold other half of omelette over the top. Continue to cook until filling cheese has melted and vegetables are warm. Serve immediately. Serves two.

If desired, fresh vegetables can be microwaved or sauted before being added to omelette.
