Serves 2

Ingredients

Butter
1 tablespoon
Salt
to taste
Black pepper
to taste
Swiss cheese
1/2 cup, shredded
Milk
2 tablespoons
Eggs
3 large
Broccoli
1 cup, chopped

Instructions

  1. In a small skillet, melt the butter over medium heat until bubbly.
  2. Add the chopped broccoli and sauté for about 5 minutes, or until tender and bright green.
  3. In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper until well combined.
  4. Pour the egg mixture into the skillet with the sautéed broccoli, tilting the skillet to ensure even coverage.
  5. Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until the edges of the omelette begin to set and the center is still slightly runny.
  6. Sprinkle the shredded Swiss cheese over one half of the omelette.
  7. Gently fold the other half of the omelette over the cheese, creating a half-moon shape.
  8. Continue cooking for another 2-3 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the omelette is cooked through.
  9. Carefully slide the omelette onto a plate and serve hot.

Tips

  • 💡 For extra flavor, consider adding sautéed onions or bell peppers along with the broccoli.
  • 💡 You can substitute Swiss cheese with other cheeses like cheddar or mozzarella if you prefer.
  • 💡 Serve your omelette with a side of whole-grain toast or a light salad for a complete meal.
