Omelet Three Layer Vegetable

This recipe may look large, but it is so good! It takes about 30 minutes to cook everything up, but well worth the effort. As I always say, I love traditional recipes with a twist, and this is definitely one of them.

SAUTE TOGETHER
1 tsp margarine
1 garlic clove, minced
1 cup broccoli
1/2 cup red pepper
1/2 cup carrot, shredded
1/3 cup green onions

COTTAGE CHEESE MIXTURE

Chop all vegetables into bite size pieces, and set aside.
