Serves 1

Ingredients

Butter
1 tablespoon
Salt
1/4 teaspoon
Black pepper
1/4 teaspoon
Cheddar cheese
1/2 cup, shredded
Eggs
3 large
Bacon
3 slices, cooked and crumbled

Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, salt, and black pepper until well combined and slightly frothy.
  2. Heat the butter in a non-stick skillet over medium heat until melted and bubbling.
  3. Pour the whisked eggs into the skillet, tilting the pan to ensure they cover the bottom evenly. Let the eggs cook undisturbed for about 1 minute, or until the edges start to set.
  4. Sprinkle the crumbled bacon and shredded cheddar cheese evenly over one half of the omelet.
  5. Using a spatula, carefully fold the other half of the omelet over the filling, creating a half-moon shape.
  6. Cook for an additional minute or until the cheese is melted and the omelet is cooked through but still moist.
  7. Gently slide the omelet onto a plate and serve hot. For an extra touch, garnish with chopped chives or parsley.

Tips

  • 💡 For added flavor, try using different types of cheese such as Swiss or pepper jack.
  • 💡 You can also add vegetables like diced bell peppers, onions, or spinach for a more nutritious version.
  • 💡 Make sure to cook the bacon until it's crispy to ensure it adds the perfect crunch to your omelet.
