Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 large eggs
- 1 cup cooked turkey (shredded or diced)
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 1 cup cheddar cheese (shredded)
- 0.5 cup bell pepper (diced)
- 2 tablespoons green onions (chopped)
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Crack the eggs into a medium mixing bowl. Add the milk, salt, and black pepper. Whisk together until well combined.
Heat a medium-sized non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the butter and swirl it around until melted and the pan is evenly coated.
Pour the egg mixture into the skillet, tilting the pan gently to create an even layer.
Sprinkle the diced bell pepper, cooked turkey, and green onions evenly across the eggs while they are still slightly runny.
After about 2-3 minutes, when the edges of the omelette begin to set but the center is still soft, sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese across one half of the omelette.
Carefully fold the omelette in half using a spatula, covering the side with the cheese.
Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the omelette is cooked through.
Slide the omelette onto a plate and serve immediately. Garnish with additional green onions if desired.
