Eggless Omelet and Veggie Burger failure; Cheese -somewhat successful

I spent the day trying new recipes. I wanted to make an eggless vegetable omelet recipe I had found but I never had the correct ingredients. I bought chickpea flour because it was the main ingredient. It would be quicker than cooking chickpeas and pureeing them or grinding my own flour. Besides that is what the recipe required. I used the recipe from the Holy Cow blog. It was simple but somehow I managed to mess it up. I burned the first omelet. I tried scrambling the next one because it did not cook in the center. Finally, I baked the rest of the batter. That was at least edible but not an omelet.

Next, I tried a different Mushroom veggie burger recipe. Followed that one exactly. It tasted fine but was too mushy. It was suppose to be firm and tender. I think the black beans were suppose to be the binder because there was no other in the usual sense. It did not work. Because I liked the flavor I will try again using ground flax seed or chia seeds for a binder.

Lastly, I tried making sliceable, vegan cheddar cheese using chickpea flour. It was very easy to make compared to some other recipes I have read. It slices. The taste is okay but I think I have to do some tweeking on the flavor. I will use it again as a base.
