1
Prepare the Bacon
In a skillet over medium heat, add the hickory smoked bacon slices and cook until they are crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Flip them halfway through for even cooking.
2
Drain the Bacon
Once cooked, remove the bacon from the skillet and place it on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess grease. Reserve the bacon fat in the skillet for cooking the eggs.

3
Whisk the Eggs
In a bowl, crack the eggs and whisk them together with salt and black pepper until well combined and slightly frothy.
4
Cook the Eggs
Using the same skillet with bacon fat, lower the heat to medium-low. Add butter and let it melt. Pour in the whisked eggs and let them cook undisturbed for about 1-2 minutes until the edges begin to set.
5
Add Bacon
Chop the cooked bacon into pieces and sprinkle them evenly over one half of the omelet.
6
Add Optional Ingredients
If using, sprinkle shredded cheese, chopped green onions, and diced tomatoes over the bacon.
7
Fold and Finish Cooking
Using a spatula, carefully fold the other half of the omelet over the bacon and optional ingredients. Cook for another 1-2 minutes until the eggs are fully cooked and the cheese (if added) is melted.
8
Serve
Gently slide the omelet onto a plate and serve immediately. Enjoy your delicious bacon omelet!
