Greek Style Omelette

Greek Omelette anyone? I love eggs. I am a little bit like Gaston from beauty and the beast, except that I don’t eat them raw, and I do not look like him, but I do eat a lot! I decided to make an omelette Greek style! So turn up the volume of Zorba the Greek and let’s get cracking!
