Wash and thinly slice the button mushrooms. Wash the broccoli florets and chop them into small, bite-sized pieces.
In a medium-sized skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the mushrooms and broccoli to the skillet. Sauté for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms are tender and the broccoli is bright green and slightly softened. Remove the vegetables from the skillet and set aside.
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper until well combined and slightly frothy.
Lower the skillet heat to medium-low and lightly grease it with a touch of olive oil or nonstick spray. Pour the egg mixture into the skillet, tilting the pan to ensure an even layer.
Cook the eggs undisturbed for 2-3 minutes, or until the edges start to set but the center is still slightly runny.
Evenly spread the sautéed mushrooms, broccoli, and shredded cheddar cheese over one half of the omelet.
Using a spatula, carefully fold the other half of the omelet over the filling. Press gently to seal.
Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, or until the cheese melts and the eggs are fully set.
Slide the omelet onto a plate, cut in half if desired, and serve warm. Enjoy your Mushroom Broccoli Omelet!
