Cheese Omelet Ingredients

Method

Cooking Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Chop any optional veggies or meat into small pieces. Grate the white cheddar and muenster cheese if not pre-shredded.

  2. 2

    Whisk the Eggs

    In a bowl, crack the eggs and whisk them together with the salt and black pepper until well combined.

  3. 3

    Cook the Omelet

    In a non-stick skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Pour in the whisked eggs and allow them to cook undisturbed for about 2-3 minutes.

  4. 4

    Add Cheese and Fillings

    Once the edges of the omelet begin to set, sprinkle the white cheddar, muenster, and ricotta cheese on one half of the omelet. If using, add the chopped veggies and meat on top of the cheese.

  5. 5

    Fold and Finish Cooking

    Carefully fold the omelet in half over the cheese and fillings. Let it cook for another 1-2 minutes until the cheese is melted and the omelet is cooked through.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Slide the omelet onto a plate and serve hot with grits or potatoes and a buttermilk biscuit.
