Middle-Eastern Herb Omelette

Features:
    Cuisine:

    Delicious. used everything but the optional zucchini as I didn't have any. I think I would prefer it without the walnuts and saffron so that is how I shall make it next time insha Allah. The only change I made was added some dried chives rather than fresh as they were all I had. I served it with Balkan (thick) yogurt which was surprisingly a very good accompaniment. Made for NA*ME Tag! Come play!!
