Crack the eggs into a medium-sized bowl. Add the milk, salt, and black pepper. Whisk together until well beaten and frothy.
Dice the mock ham, red bell pepper, and onion into small pieces.
Heat 1 tablespoon of butter or olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Add the onion and red bell pepper to the skillet and sautΓ© for 3-4 minutes until softened.
Add the mock ham and spinach to the skillet and cook for another 2-3 minutes until the spinach is wilted.
Transfer the vegetable and mock ham mixture to a bowl and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of butter or olive oil and reduce the heat to medium-low.
Pour the beaten eggs into the skillet, tilting the pan to ensure the eggs cover the bottom evenly.
As the eggs begin to set, use a spatula to gently lift the edges, allowing the uncooked eggs to flow to the edges.
Once the eggs are mostly set but still soft on top, spread the vegetable and mock ham mixture evenly over half of the omelet.
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the filling.
Carefully fold the omelet in half to enclose the filling and cook for another minute to melt the cheese.
Slide the omelet onto a plate, cut in half, and serve warm.
