Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- Salt, to taste
- Black pepper, to taste
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1/4 cup diced bell peppers
- 1/4 cup diced onions
- 1/4 cup diced tomatoes
- 1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese
Directions
- Crack the eggs into a bowl and whisk them lightly. Season with salt and pepper.
- Add the milk to the eggs and whisk until well combined.
- Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and melt the butter.
- Add the bell peppers, onions, and tomatoes to the skillet. Sauté for 2-3 minutes until they are slightly softened.
- Pour the egg mixture over the vegetables and let it cook undisturbed for about 1-2 minutes until the edges start to set.
- Using a spatula, gently push the cooked edges towards the center, allowing the uncooked eggs to flow to the edges of the skillet.
- Continue cooking for another 2-3 minutes, gently moving and folding the eggs until they are mostly set but still slightly runny in the center.
- Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the omelet and fold it in half.
- Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until the cheese is melted and the omelet is cooked to your desired consistency.
- Slide the omelet onto a plate and serve hot.
