It looks like this will be the last of the ramp posts for this year and it is a tasty one! This omelette was inspired by the ramp pesto omelette with asparagus and goat cheese but I was out of the pesto so I simplified things a bit and just used the ramps. I wanted to saute the white parts of the ramps and since I was going to be doing that I figured that I would start with some bacon and then saute the ramps in the grease. (Bacon was on sale recently, I swear!) However I did not want to saute the greens so I mixed them into the eggs along with some salt and pepper. I almost alway have some asparagus in the house these days and I still had some goat cheese left over so I finished off my omelet with them. This omelette was a great way to say goodbye to the ramps, well, the ones that I did not pickle that is.
