Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons heavy cream
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 0.5 medium bell pepper, diced
- 0.25 cup mushrooms, sliced
- 0.5 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.125 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
Instructions
Crack the eggs into a medium-sized bowl. Add the heavy cream, salt, and ground black pepper. Whisk vigorously until the mixture is well combined and slightly frothy.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the butter. Allow the butter to melt entirely and coat the surface of the skillet.
Add the diced bell pepper and sliced mushrooms to the skillet. Sauté for 2-3 minutes until the vegetables are tender but still vibrant.
Reduce the heat to low. Pour the egg mixture into the skillet over the vegetables. Allow it to cook undisturbed for about 4-5 minutes or until the edges begin to set.
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over one half of the omelet.
Using a spatula, carefully fold the omelet in half over the cheese. Let it cook for an additional minute to melt the cheese thoroughly.
Gently slide the omelet onto a serving plate. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley.
Serve warm and enjoy your low-carb classic 3 egg omelet.
