Bell Pepper and Sausage Omelette

Ingredients

• Butter (1 tablespoon)
• Salt (to taste)
• Black pepper (to taste)
• Cheddar cheese (1/2 cup, shredded)
• Milk (2 tablespoons)
• Eggs (4 large)
• Sausage (1 cup, cooked and crumbled (preferably breakfast sausage))
• Bell peppers (1 cup, diced (mixed colors for vibrant presentation))

Instructions

1. In a small skillet, melt half of the butter over medium heat. Add the diced bell peppers and sauté until they are tender and slightly caramelized, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
2. In a separate skillet, cook the sausage over medium heat until it is browned and crumbled, about 5-6 minutes. Drain excess fat if necessary and set aside.
3. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper until well combined and slightly frothy.
4. Heat the remaining butter in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and let it cook for a few minutes, gently pushing the edges toward the center with a spatula as they set.
5. Once the edges start to firm up, sprinkle the sautéed bell peppers, cooked sausage, and shredded cheddar cheese evenly over one half of the omelette.
6. Using a spatula, carefully fold the other half of the omelette over the filling, creating a half-moon shape. Cook for another minute or two until the cheese is melted and the omelette is cooked through but still soft inside.
7. Slide the omelette onto a plate, garnish with extra cheese or herbs if desired, and serve hot.
