Omelet Ingredients

Method

Omelet Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Vegetables

    In a skillet over medium heat, melt 1 tablespoon of butter or oil. Add the sliced mushrooms, chopped onion, and bell pepper. Sauté until softened, about 5-7 minutes. Add diced tomatoes and cook for an additional 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper, then remove from heat.

  2. 2

    Make the Omelet

    In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, adding a pinch of salt and pepper. In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of butter or oil. Pour in the egg mixture, tilting the pan to spread evenly. Cook until the edges begin to set, about 2 minutes.

  3. 3

    Add Fillings

    Once the eggs have set slightly, add the sautéed vegetables and shredded cheddar cheese on one half of the omelet. Carefully fold the other half over the fillings and cook for another 1-2 minutes until the cheese melts and the eggs are fully cooked.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Slide the omelet onto a plate and serve immediately with toast and your choice of hashbrowns or grits.
