Calories: 644kcal
Ingredients
- 2 Tablespoons Butter
- ⅓ cup Cooked Ham diced
- ¼ cup Onion Diced White
- ½ cup Bell Pepper Diced Green or any color
- Salt and Pepper to taste
- 3 Eggs
- 1 Tablespoon Milk or water
- ⅓ cup Shredded Cheddar Cheese
Instructions
- Add butter to a nonstick skillet on medium heat and allow it to melt.
- Cook the ham for a few minutes until it starts to get a golden brown sear.
- Add the vegetables to the skillet, cook until they begin to soften, then remove the ham and vegetables from the skillet.
- Put the rest of the butter into the skillet.
- Pour the whisked eggs into the skillet and cook according to the instructions provided.
- Once the egg is set and no longer runny, add the cooked ham, vegetables, and cheese on top of the egg mixture.
- Continue cooking according to the instructions, and then fold the omelet in half to serve.
Notes
- Saute the veggies to soften them. This will bring out the flavor of the vegetables and give them a softer texture. If you don’t saute, the veggies will be raw and crunchy.
- If you overcook the eggs, they can become a bit rubbery on the outside.
- To help melt the cheese, place a lid on top of the pan for a minute.
