Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 large Eggs
- 2 tablespoons Milk
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
- 1 teaspoons Butter
- 0.5 cups Pepper jack cheese
- 6 pieces Pepperoni slices
- 2 tablespoons Pizza sauce
- 0.25 teaspoons Italian seasoning
- 2 leaves Fresh basil (optional)
Instructions
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper until well combined and slightly frothy.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat and add the butter, letting it melt and coat the bottom of the pan evenly.
Pour the egg mixture into the skillet, swirling the pan gently to ensure the eggs spread evenly. Cook for 2-3 minutes or until the edges start to set.
Sprinkle half of the pepper jack cheese evenly over one side of the omelet. Add the pepperoni slices, pizza sauce, and Italian seasoning on top of the cheese.
Sprinkle the remaining pepper jack cheese over the toppings, then carefully fold the omelet in half using a spatula.
Cook for another 2-3 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the omelet is cooked through. Avoid overcooking as the eggs may become rubbery.
Slide the omelet onto a plate, garnish with fresh basil leaves if desired, and serve immediately.
