In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
Heat a medium non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the butter. Once melted, add the diced ham, green bell pepper, red bell pepper, and onion to the skillet.
Sauté the ham and vegetables for about 5 minutes or until they are softened and the onions become translucent.
Pour the egg mixture over the ham and vegetables in the skillet, tilting the pan gently to ensure even distribution.
Allow the egg mixture to cook for about 3-4 minutes until the edges start to set.
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over one half of the omelette.
Using a spatula, carefully fold the other half of the omelette over the cheese-topped side.
Continue to cook for another 2-3 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the eggs are fully cooked.
Slide the omelette onto a plate, cut in half, and serve hot.
