A classical omelet is made with only eggs. This omelet is different both by containing tomatoes, ham, onion and cheese, and for its different shape. This is a way to enhance the flavor of the actual omelet itself and not by serving the ingredients on the side. It is a good idea to serve this omelet as lunch or for a lighter dinner together with a salad on the side.
