Ingredients

  • 3 large eggs
  • 2 tablespoons milk
  • 0.25 teaspoons salt
  • 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon butter
  • 2 tablespoons shredded cheese (optional)
  • 0.25 cups chopped vegetables (optional, e.g., bell peppers, onions, mushrooms)

Directions

Step 1

Crack the eggs into a medium-sized bowl. Add the milk, salt, and black pepper.

Step 2

Whisk the mixture vigorously until the eggs are fully blended and slightly frothy.

Step 3

If using vegetables, pre-chop them into small, even pieces.

Step 4

Heat a non-stick or lightly oiled skillet over medium heat. Add the butter and let it melt, coating the pan evenly.

Step 5

Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and let it cook undisturbed for about 30 seconds, or until the edges start to set.

Step 6

Using a spatula, gently lift the edges of the omelet while tilting the skillet to allow the uncooked egg to flow beneath.

Step 7

If adding cheese or vegetables, sprinkle them evenly over one side of the omelet.

Step 8

Once the omelet is mostly set but still slightly soft on top, carefully fold it in half using the spatula.

Step 9

Cook for an additional 30-60 seconds to ensure the cheese melts and the filling is warm.

Step 10

Slide the omelet onto a plate and serve immediately. Enjoy!
