Ingredients

• 4 pieces large eggs
• 2 tablespoons whole milk
• 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
• 1 teaspoon olive oil
• 0.5 piece red bell pepper, diced
• 0.25 cup yellow onion, finely chopped
• 0.33 cup mushrooms, sliced
• 0.5 cup shredded cheddar cheese
• 0.25 cup smoked ham, diced
• 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 0.125 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 1 dash hot sauce (optional)

Directions

Step 1

In a medium-sized mixing bowl, crack the eggs and whisk them together with the milk, salt, and black pepper until well combined.

Step 2

Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil and butter. Swirl the pan to coat evenly.

Step 3

Add the diced red bell pepper, chopped onion, and sliced mushrooms to the pan. Sauté for 2-3 minutes until the vegetables are softened.

Step 4

Add the diced ham to the vegetables in the skillet and cook for an additional minute to heat through. Remove the mixture from the skillet and set aside.

Step 5

Lower the heat to medium-low and pour the egg mixture into the skillet. Let it cook undisturbed for about 1-2 minutes, until the edges start to set.

Step 6

Evenly sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over one half of the omelet, followed by the cooked vegetable and ham mixture.

Step 7

Using a spatula, carefully fold the omelet in half to cover the filling. Cook for another 1-2 minutes until the cheese melts and the omelet is cooked through.

Step 8

Slide the omelet onto a plate and garnish with fresh parsley. Add a dash of hot sauce if desired.

Step 9

Serve immediately and enjoy your hearty Innkeeper's Omelet!
