Asparagus & Sausage Omelette - Bagel Sandwich

I love bagel sandwiches for breakfast, and made my classic veggie recipe yesterday.
Mixing it up, I wanted to add some meat and some heat this morning,
so I substituted jalapenos instead of red peppers and added some pork sausage patties


Yield 2 Omelettes
Ingredients:
1/2 Lb of fresh Asparagus
4 Eggs, well beaten
1/4 C Red Bell Peppers, chopped
4 T finely diced Shallots
4 T roasted garlic
2 T Butter
2 T Olive Oil
1 T crushed Red Pepper flakes
1 T Basil, chopped
S & P


Directions:
  1. Place the asparagus in a baking dish and coat with olive oil, red pepper flakes, basil and S & P   
  2. Add whole garlic cloves to roast them if you prefer (I do!)
  3. Bake for 30 mins @ 350 degrees F
  4. Chop and dice peppers and shallots
  5. Once the asparagus is done, remove from oven and let rest for 5 mins
  6. Heat a sautee pan @ medium heat, add 1 T of butter once hot
  7. Sautee peppers and scallions until limp/clear
  8. Remove from pan and set aside, add 1 T of butter
  9. Pour eggs into butter coated pan
  10. Dice 6 pieces of asparagus, I save several heads for a side and chop mostly stems
  11. Add ingredients to omelette and fold, once hardened
  12. Remove from heat at your desired egg consistency
  13. Cutting the omelette in half, add to toasted bagel


I added 1 T of Maple syrup on top of the pumpernickel bagel, because I couldn't resist
