CHICKEN MIXED VEGGIE STUFFED OMELETTE

Now this has become my favorite omelette thus far! Why? It has CHICKEN! hahaha! I guess I just love chicken. You do not need to rack your brain about what to do with left over chicken. It may be to small for a full meal but when you shred you can use as stuffing.
