Crack the eggs into a mixing bowl. Add the milk and freshly ground black pepper, then whisk until the mixture is well combined and slightly frothy.
Heat one tablespoon of olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the diced bell pepper and sliced mushrooms, and sauté for about 3-4 minutes until they are softened.
Add the diced low sodium ham to the skillet and continue to sauté for another 2 minutes, ensuring everything is evenly mixed and heated through.
Transfer the vegetable and ham mixture to a plate and wipe the skillet clean with a paper towel.
Add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil to the clean skillet and pour in the egg mixture, swirling to coat the bottom of the pan evenly.
Let the eggs cook undisturbed for about 1-2 minutes, until they begin to set around the edges.
Sprinkle the sautéed vegetables and ham evenly over one half of the omelette.
Using a spatula, gently fold the other half of the omelette over the filled side, and let it cook for an additional 2 minutes, or until the eggs are fully set and the interior is warm.
Garnish the omelette with fresh parsley and green onions before serving. Serve immediately while hot.
