Chanterelle & Aged Gouda Omelete



Good Morning and Happy Weekend! No recipe today, just a tempting picture to get you started for the day. A simple omelet is transformed by Winchester Cheese Co.'s aged gouda (available at the UCI Farmer's market for those of you in Orange County) and fresh chanterelles sauteed in butter.

A slab of Irish soda bread topped with rhubarb-strawberry jam and a serving of potatoes with bacon and onions completed the meal and made for one heck of a brunch!

Enjoy your weekend!

You know. I definitely don't eat gouda enough. Which is a shame because it's one of my favorite cheeses. Thank you for allowing me to reflect on that. :P

Have a great weekend!

Rose - One of the things I miss most about living in France was my easy access to terrific and reasonably priced wild mushrooms. The chanterelles and cepes (porcini) there were bountiful and fabulous. Living where I do now in the NE, they are fairly rare and when I can get them, stupid expensive. Aged gouda is one of my fav cheeses, so nutty and sweet. - S
