Ingredients

Scale

Omelette Base

  • 3 large eggs
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Protein

  • 1/2 cup diced ham

Vegetables

  • 1/4 cup diced bell peppers
  • 1/4 cup roughly chopped spinach
  • 1/4 cup sliced mushrooms
  • 1/4 cup diced onions

Cheese & Fat

  • 1/4 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, feta, or preferred)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil or butter

Instructions

  1. Prepare Your Ingredients: Wash and dice the bell peppers, roughly chop the spinach, slice the mushrooms, and dice the ham into small cubes. Beat the eggs lightly with a pinch of salt and pepper until smooth and fluffy.
  2. Sauté the Veggies & Ham: Heat olive oil or butter in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add diced onions and cook until translucent. Then add bell peppers, mushrooms, and spinach, stirring occasionally until softened. Finally, add diced ham and warm through without drying.
  3. Pour in the Eggs: Spread the sautéed veggies and ham evenly in the pan. Pour the beaten eggs over the filling, tilting the skillet to cover everything evenly. Cook on medium-low heat to avoid burning.
  4. Add Cheese and Fold: When the eggs start to set but remain slightly runny on top, sprinkle shredded cheese over them. Once the bottom is firm and cheese begins to melt, fold the omelette in half using a spatula. Cook for another minute to let flavors meld.
  5. Serve Hot: Slide the cooked omelette onto a plate and serve immediately to enjoy warm, melty goodness at its peak.

Notes

  • Use room temperature eggs for better mixing and even cooking.
  • Cook on medium-low heat to ensure fluffy eggs without burning.
  • Do not overfill the omelette to make folding easier and prevent breaking.
  • Use a sharp knife for quick and clean dicing of veggies and ham.
  • Freshly shredded cheese melts better than pre-shredded varieties.
