- Plate the omelette and drizzle with Thousand Islands dressing.

Notes
Though you could use slabs of corned beef, I recommend using canned corned beef. Slabs are a little thicker and more suitable for sandwiches, whereas canned corn beef can be easily manipulated.
Instead of corned beef, you can use seitan or tempeh. You can also find vegan swiss cheese in most grocery stores and many milk alternatives like oat milk!
Pay close attention to the layering of your filling. I recommend starting with the swiss cheese so that it melts nicely and binds the other ingredients together.
Once it’s time to fold, take it nice and easy. You really don’t want to rush this part, even though our instincts tell us to be swift with our movements. Slow and steady wins the race!
