Cut the Hass avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop out the flesh. Slice the avocado into thin strips and set aside.
Crack the eggs into a medium bowl. Add whole milk, salt, and black pepper. Whisk thoroughly until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
Slice the cherry tomatoes in half. If using parsley or cilantro, finely chop it and set aside.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the unsalted butter and allow it to melt, coating the entire pan.
Once the butter is hot and slightly foamy, pour the egg mixture into the skillet. Use a spatula to gently push the cooked edges toward the center, allowing uncooked egg to flow to the edges.
When the omelet is mostly set but still slightly runny on top, sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over one side. Add the sliced avocado and cherry tomato halves on top of the cheese.
Use the spatula to carefully fold the omelet in half over the fillings. Cook for another 1-2 minutes until the cheese melts and the filling is warm.
Transfer the omelet to a plate. Garnish with chopped parsley or cilantro if desired.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Hass Avocado Sunrise Omelet!
