Yes — make a **stovetop leek & Parmesan bread omelette** (like a crispy pan strata). It uses all your ingredients, no oven, and is dinner-y enough for two.

**Serves 2 — about 20 min**

**Use**
- 4 eggs
- ½ leek
- 3–4 slices stale bread, cubed
- ⅓ cup grated Parmesan
- 2 tbsp butter
- Salt, pepper
- Optional: splash milk/water, mustard, nutmeg, thyme

**Important:** Traditional Parmesan often uses animal rennet, so if your gf avoids that, use vegetarian-labeled Parmesan/hard cheese or skip it.

**Method**
1. **Prep:** Slice leek thin, rinse well to remove grit. Cube the stale bread. Grate Parmesan.
2. **Beat eggs:** Whisk eggs with Parmesan, salt, pepper, and a splash of milk/water if you have it. If bread is very hard, add the cubes to the egg mix now so they soften while you cook the leek.
3. **Cook leek:** In a 10-inch nonstick skillet, melt 1 tbsp butter over medium. Add leek + pinch salt. Cook 5–7 min until soft, sweet, and lightly golden.
4. **Add bread:** Add remaining 1 tbsp butter and the bread cubes. Toss with the leek. Let them toast in the pan for 2–3 min, spread into an even layer.
5. **Set the eggs:** Reduce heat to low. Pour egg mixture over the bread/leek. Shake pan gently. Cover with a lid and cook 6–8 min until eggs are just set and bottom is golden. If the top is still wet, cover and cook 1–2 min more.
6. **Finish:** Sprinkle extra Parmesan. You can fold it like an omelette, or slide it onto a plate and flip back into the pan for 1–2 min for a crisp second side. Cut in wedges.

**Serve** with black pepper and extra Parmesan. If you have salad greens or a lemon, that’s a nice side, but not necessary.

**Quicker backup:** Sauté the leek in butter, scramble the eggs with Parmesan, and pile it all on butter-toasted stale bread. That’s 12 minutes.
