Ingredients

Scale

Eggs and Protein

  • 3 large fresh eggs
  • 1/2 cup diced ham

Vegetables

  • 1/4 cup diced bell peppers (any color)
  • 1/2 cup fresh spinach leaves
  • 1/4 cup diced onions
  • 1/4 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

Dairy & Seasonings

  • 1/4 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or mozzarella)
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt, or to taste
  • 1/8 teaspoon black pepper, or to taste
  • 1 teaspoon cooking oil or butter

Instructions

  1. Prepare Your Ingredients: Chop all vegetables into bite-sized pieces and dice the ham. Crack the eggs into a bowl, season with salt and pepper, then whisk until frothy and well combined.
  2. Sauté the Veggies and Ham: Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add a small amount of oil or butter. Toss in onions, bell peppers, and ham, cooking until veggies soften and ham develops a slight crisp, about 3 to 4 minutes. Add spinach last, letting it wilt quickly.
  3. Pour in the Eggs: Spread the sautéed mixture evenly across the pan. Pour the whisked eggs over the veggies and ham, tilting the pan gently to cover everything evenly. Cook without stirring, allowing the eggs to set on the edges.
  4. Add Cheese and Tomatoes: Once the eggs start to firm up but the surface is still slightly runny, sprinkle your cheese evenly and scatter cherry tomatoes on top, then cover the skillet to help everything melt and cook through.
  5. Fold and Finish: When the eggs are fully set but still moist, carefully fold the omelette in half with a spatula and let it sit for another minute before sliding it onto your plate. This step creates that classic omelette shape and melts the cheese perfectly.

Notes

  • Use fresh eggs for the fluffiest omelette.
  • Cook on medium heat to avoid overcooking or browning the eggs excessively.
  • Cover the pan while melting cheese to trap heat and ensure even cooking.
  • Prep veggies and ham ahead of time to save cooking time.
  • A non-stick pan ensures easy flipping and a clean presentation.
