Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons whole milk
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 0.25 cup bell pepper (diced)
- 0.25 cup onion (diced)
- 0.25 cup spinach (chopped)
- 0.5 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 0.25 cup cooked ham (diced)
Instructions
Crack the eggs into a medium-sized bowl. Add the milk, salt, and black pepper. Whisk together until fully combined and slightly frothy.
Prepare the filling ingredients by dicing the bell pepper, onion, and ham, and chopping the spinach.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and melt the butter, spreading it evenly across the pan.
Once the butter is melted, pour the whisked egg mixture into the skillet and tilt the pan to spread it evenly.
Let the eggs cook undisturbed for 1-2 minutes, or until the edges start to set but the center is still slightly runny.
Sprinkle the diced bell pepper, onion, spinach, ham, and shredded cheddar cheese evenly over one side of the omelet.
Using a spatula, carefully fold the empty side of the omelet over the filling. Gently press down to seal the edges.
Continue cooking the omelet for another 1-2 minutes, or until the cheese has melted and the eggs are fully set.
Carefully slide the omelet onto a plate and serve warm. Enjoy your Favorite Omelet with a side of toast or fresh fruit!
