Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 pieces large eggs
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 1 tablespoon olive oil or butter
- 0.5 cup sliced cooked turkey (diced)
- 0.25 cup pepperoni slices (quartered)
- 0.5 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
In a medium-sized bowl, crack the eggs and whisk them together with milk, salt, and black pepper until smooth and well combined.
Heat the olive oil or butter in a non-stick skillet over medium heat, coating the pan evenly.
Pour the egg mixture into the skillet, tilting the pan to spread the eggs into an even layer.
Cook the eggs without stirring for about 1-2 minutes, or until the edges begin to set.
Sprinkle the diced turkey, quartered pepperoni slices, and shredded cheddar cheese evenly over one half of the omelet.
Continue cooking for another 2-3 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the eggs are mostly set (they should still look slightly moist on top).
Using a spatula, carefully fold the uncovered half of the omelet over the filling.
Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes to ensure the filling is heated through and the eggs are fully cooked.
Slide the omelet onto a plate, sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley if desired, and serve immediately.
