_*Spanish Omelet_--1 green pepper, 1 red pepper, 1 onion, 3
tablespoons Crisco, 6 mushrooms, 6 eggs, 6 tablespoons water, salt and
pepper to taste.
Put 1/2 Crisco in saucepan, add onion chopped very fine, mushrooms and
red and green pepper; cover, cook slowly for 20 minutes. Make plain
omelet from rest of ingredients; turn this out on heated dish, fill

This omelet can be made very handsome by saving 1/4 of green and
red pepper, cutting it into fancy shapes to use a garnish for top of
omelet.
