Servings: 2
Ingredients
- Eggs (4 large)
- Unsalted butter (1 tablespoon)
- Salt (1/4 teaspoon)
- Black pepper (1/4 teaspoon)
- Cheddar cheese (1/2 cup, shredded)
- Tomatoes (1 cup, diced)
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, crack the eggs and add salt and black pepper. Whisk together until well combined and frothy.
- In a non-stick skillet, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat, ensuring it coats the bottom of the skillet evenly.
- Once the butter is bubbling but not browned, pour the beaten eggs into the skillet. Allow the eggs to cook undisturbed for about 1 minute, or until the edges begin to set.
- Sprinkle the diced tomatoes and shredded cheddar cheese evenly over one half of the omelette.
- Using a spatula, carefully fold the other half of the omelette over the filling. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the eggs are fully cooked.
- Gently slide the omelette onto a plate and serve hot. Enjoy with a side of toast or a light salad for a complete meal.
