Chickpea Omelet {recipe}

I am sill struggling to perfect this one! I don't know how thick the batter is supposed to be, but it always seems too thick to me. The recipe indicates it serves one, but I think it can easily serve two. Usually instead of being omelet-ish, it turns out more like scrambled! LOL

This morning when I made it, I forgot to put the salt in. (duh!) I don't use pepper (another of my allergies), and I didn't have the full amount of the nutritional yeast. I added peppers and onion to the batter. I piled diced tomato and avocado on top, with a drizzle of Cashew Jack Cheese to top it all off. It turned out rather tasty! Steven (my youngest son) doused his in ketchup!
