INGREDIENTS:
1 (3-ounce) package cream cheese, softened 1 ounce Gorgonzola cheese or blue cheese, crumbled 1 cooking apple, peeled, cored, and chopped
3 tablespoons butter or margarine, divided 1 teaspoon sugar 4 eggs
1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon water



1 Combine cream cheese and Gorgonzola cheese in a small bowl; mix well, and set aside.
2 Saute apple in 1 tablespoon butter in a skillet until tender. Add sugar; cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until sugar melts and turns a light golden brown. Remove from heat, and set aside.
3 Combine eggs and water, stirring with a wire whisk just until blened. Heat a 6-inch omelet pan or heavy skillet over medium heat until hot enough to sizzle a drop of water. Add 1 tablespoon butter, and rotate pan to coat bottom.
4 Pour in half of egg mixture. As mixture starts to cook, gently lift edges of omelet with a spatula, and tilt pan so that uncooked portion flows underneath. When egg mixture is set, spoon half of apples over half of omelet; top with half of cheese mixture. Fold omelet in half, and transfer to a serving plate.
5 Repeat procedure with remaining butter, egg mixture, apples, and cheese mixture.
