WeightWatchers Vegetable Omelet with Tomatoes and Peppers Recipe

This is a variation of the original Basque recipe called “Piperrada” (“Piperade”). It tastes just as delicious as the original version, but comes with much less fat. In the Basque Country (Spain), people are particularly fond of eating this vegetable omelet with fried Bayonne ham. If you want the dish with meat, add some lean cooked ham and roll into the egg mixture while cooking.
