Vegan Omelettes Gratinées à la Tomate

[Tomato-filled Omelettes Gratinéed With Cream and Cheese]


Oh My! was this ever good...another omelette recipe - I used the same omelette mixture as before...so...very...good...

...First you make your omelette...and the COULIS DE TOMATES À LA PROVENÇALE - Julia says to cut a slit along the omelette and fill the slit with the sauce - but we made ours like the rolled omelette and filled it and rolled it up...

...Julia says to use whipping cream or crème fraîche...

...so I sort of combined the two and used some Tofutti Sour Cream mixed with some vegan creamer...

...poured that over the rolled omelette...sprinkled with some Daiya cheese (supposed to be swiss - but used mozzarella) and some melted Earth Balance...

...and ran that under the broiler for a few minutes...

...and it was absolutely, perfectly delicious...


Substitutions:
Vegan omelette mixture for Eggs
Earth Balance for Butter
Tofutti Sour Cream mixed with some vegan creamer for the whipping cream or crème fraîche
Daiya Mozzarella for the Swiss cheese
