Omelettes are a quick and easy standby, suitable for breakfast, lunch and dinner. They are so versatile and can be adapted to whatever ingredients you have on hand. Baking your omelette in the oven makes it foolproof. It takes a little longer, but you can walk away and get something else done while it cooks. This Low FODMAP Baked Omelette is vegetarian, and I've chosen low-FODMAP vegetables so it should be suitable for sensitive tummies. I usually top it with cheddar cheese which is low in lactose, but if you need a completely dairy free option you can use dairy-free cheese, or just leave it out altogether.
Serve with salad, bread and/or chips, if wanted. If you have any leftovers, they keep well in the fridge for a couple of days. This makes them handy for packed lunches or breakfast on the go. You could cook the mixture in muffin tins and top each one with a cherry tomato half to make mini baked omelettes - perfect for parties.
