Bacon, Apple, and Blue Cheese Omelette

Ideally this omelette would be made with Stilton, but Danish blue was on sale this week, so I just got myself a wedge of that instead. This was good, but I do feel like the cheese overpowered everything else. I would be curious to try it with a fruity white Stilton sometime. I think that would give it a very different character.
