  3. Stir in 1/4 cup chopped fresh basil, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon fennel seeds, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
  4. Gently fold in 1/2 cup chopped bell peppers (any color), 1/2 cup chopped zucchini, 1/4 cup chopped red onion, and 1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese (optional).
  5. Pour the egg mixture into the prepared baking pan and spread evenly.
  6. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a knife inserted into the center comes out clean.
  7. Let the omelet stand for 10 minutes before slicing and serving. Garnish with extra basil if desired.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Elevate your dish with simple flavor boosters! A final flourish of freshly chopped herbs can add incredible brightness, while a squeeze of lemon or lime juice right before serving can awaken all the flavors. Don't underestimate a sprinkle of quality finishing salt or a drizzle of good olive oil to make your creation shine.
