Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 large eggs
- 0.5 cups milk
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons ground black pepper
- 1 green bell pepper, diced
- 1 red bell pepper, diced
- 1 yellow onion, diced
- 1 cups cooked ham, diced
- 1 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoons unsalted butter (for greasing)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with the unsalted butter and set it aside.
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced green bell pepper, red bell pepper, and onion, cooking for 5-7 minutes until softened. Remove from heat and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and ground black pepper until well combined.
Stir the cooked vegetables, diced ham, and 3/4 cup of the shredded cheddar cheese into the egg mixture.
Pour the mixture evenly into the greased baking dish, spreading it out if necessary.
Sprinkle the remaining 1/4 cup of shredded cheddar cheese over the top.
Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the omelet is set and the top is golden brown.
Remove the baked omelet from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes before slicing into squares or rectangles.
Serve warm and enjoy your Oven Baked Western Omelet!
