Step 1
After washing the zucchini and scallion, cut both of them up into thin slices. I also found that the sun-dried tomatoes were quite large for my liking, so I cut those in half as well, but that's up to your preference.

Step 2
In a small pan, take a little bit of butter and cook the veggies. It's better to add the zucchini first to let it get some color before adding the scallions.

Step 3
While the veggies are cooking, crack 2 eggs into a small bowl. Add some Italian seasoning. Then beat those eggs with a whisk or fork.
#SpoonTip: The key to a fluffy omelet is to whisk until the eggs start forming bubbles like you see in the photo.
