Ingredients

• 3 pieces large eggs
• 2 tablespoons heavy cream
• 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
• 1 ounce ham, diced
• 0.25 cup green bell pepper, diced
• 0.25 cup red bell pepper, diced
• 0.25 cup yellow onion, diced
• 0.5 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper

Directions

Step 1

In a small bowl, beat the eggs together with the heavy cream, salt, and black pepper until well combined.

Step 2

Melt the butter in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.

Step 3

Add the diced ham to the skillet, and sauté for 2 minutes until it's slightly browned.

Step 4

Add the diced green bell pepper, red bell pepper, and yellow onion to the skillet. Cook for about 3-4 minutes until they begin to soften.

Step 5

Pour the egg mixture over the sautéed ham and vegetables, making sure to cover them evenly.

Step 6

Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the eggs.

Step 7

Let the omelet cook without stirring for about 3 minutes or until the edges start to set.

Step 8

Using a spatula, gently lift the edges of the omelet to allow the uncooked eggs to flow underneath. Continue cooking until the omelet is almost set but still slightly runny on top, about 2 more minutes.

Step 9

Carefully fold the omelet in half, then slide it onto a plate.

Step 10

Serve immediately while hot, garnished with additional cheese or fresh herbs if desired.
