Chanterelles are pretty-looking mushrooms you can find when walking in the forest. Their tops have the shape of a cup or a trumpet. Chanterelles have a subtle flavor; kind of a balance of fruity, peppery, and gently earthy. This omelet is really easy to make. It takes less than 20 minutes to have it ready on your plate! You can use any other mushrooms you have available, as long as they aren’t canned or dried.
