Gruyere and Prosciutto Oven Omlette

My foodie friend, Kyndra forwarded this too me under the title of "Too Good of a Recipe NOT to Share." So I tried it that weekend and it did not disappoint. EASY and delicious. My kids inhaled it. I wish I would have doubled it! Thanks Williams-Sonoma.

The best part is that you can make it in advance and refrigerate it overnight. Then just top it with the bread cubes just before baking.

Ingredients:

• 8 eggs
• 1 cup milk
• 1/4 tsp. salt
• 1/4 tsp. freshly grated nutmeg
• 2 oz. prosciutto or ham, julienned
• 2 cups shredded Gruyère or Swiss cheese
• 1/2 cup sourdough French bread cubes (1/2-inch
  cubes)
• 2 Tbs. extra-virgin olive oil

Directions:

Preheat an oven to 350°F. Lightly butter a shallow 1 1/2-quart round baking dish, 9 1/2 inches in diameter.

In a large bowl, beat the eggs until blended. Stir in the milk, salt, nutmeg, prosciutto and cheese until evenly distributed. Pour the egg mixture into the prepared baking dish.

In a small bowl, toss the bread cubes with the olive oil to coat. Scatter the bread cubes evenly over the egg mixture.

Bake until the omelette is golden brown on top and slightly puffed, 35 to 40 minutes. Serve hot, cut into wedges. Serves 6 to 8.

White Chocolate Macadamia Nut Cookies

Lisa made these for our ward conferences last year and I've been craving them ever since. So I finally asked for the recipe and made them this week. Oh they were as good as I remembered. She makes them with Coconut instead of macadamia nuts. Both are equally tasty.
