1
Chop the Vegetables
Dice the onion and green bell pepper into small pieces. Set aside.
2
Prepare the Eggs
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk until well combined. Add salt and black pepper to the mixture.

3
Sauté the Vegetables
In a large skillet, heat olive oil or butter over medium heat. Add the diced onion and bell pepper, sautéing until they are soft and the onion is translucent, about 5-7 minutes.
4
Add the Ham
Add the diced ham to the skillet with the sautéed vegetables. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally.
5
Cook the Eggs
Pour the egg mixture into the skillet over the ham and vegetables. Allow it to cook undisturbed for 2-3 minutes, or until the edges start to set.
6
Add the Cheese
Sprinkle the mixed cheeses evenly over the omelette. Cover the skillet with a lid and let it cook for another 2-3 minutes, or until the cheese melts and the eggs are fully set.
7
Serve
Once cooked, gently fold the omelette in half and slide it onto a plate. Serve hot.
