• 0.25 Cups heavy cream
• 2 Tablespoons butter
• 6 Ounces canned crab
• 6 Ounces canned salad shrimp
• 0.25 Cups heavy cream
• 1 Teaspoon Dijon mustard
• 1 Cups Cheddar cheese, shredded
• 1 Pinch nutmeg

• 1 Pinch ground black pepper, to taste
• Cooking spray
• 4 Large eggs, whisked
• 0.25 Cups heavy cream

Steps

1. Make Filling: Stir together chicken broth and mustard in a saucepan until well combined. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat, then add cream and butter. Reduce heat to medium and simmer until reduced by half. Stir in crab and shrimp; keep warm over low heat.
2. Make Sauce: Stir together cream and mustard in a small pot over medium heat until hot. Whisk in Cheddar cheese until smooth. Season with nutmeg, salt, and pepper; keep warm over low heat.
3. Prepare Omelets: Grease an 8-inch nonstick skillet with cooking spray and place over medium heat. Whisk together eggs, cream, salt, and pepper in a medium bowl until smooth.
4. Cook Omelets: Pour about 0.25 cup egg mixture into the hot pan; swirl to make a thin, even layer of egg. Cook until firm, then flip and cook for a few more seconds to firm the other side. Spoon 1/6 of the seafood filling onto the lower half of the omelet, then roll up into a cylinder. Repeat this step with the remaining egg mixture.
5. Serve: Serve 2 omelets smothered in cheese sauce per person. Enjoy your cheesy seafood delight!
