Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup sliced zucchini
  • 1/4 cup sliced mushrooms
  • 1/4 cup sliced tomatoes
  • 1/4 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or your favorite cheese)
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Olive oil or cooking spray for the pan
  • Herbs or greens for garnish

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, whisk the eggs until well beaten. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.

  3. Add the zucchini and mushrooms to the pan and sauté for 2-3 minutes until they start to soften.

  5. Allow the eggs to cook undisturbed for a minute or until the edges start to set.
  6. Sprinkle the diced tomatoes and shredded cheese over one half of the omelet.
  7. Carefully fold the other half of the omelet over the filling, creating a half-moon shape.
  8. Cook for another 1-2 minutes until the cheese melts and the omelet is cooked through.
  9. Slide the omelet onto a plate, garnish as desired, and serve hot.

Notes

Use a non-stick skillet to ensure the omelet doesn’t stick and is easy to flip. Feel free to experiment with other customizations like bacon, ham, sausage, bell peppers, spinach, or onions for added flavor and variety. Don’t be afraid to season your omelet with herbs like basil, parsley, or chives to elevate the taste. Pair your omelet with a side of toast, fresh fruit, or a small salad for a complete meal. Enjoy!
