Ingredients

• 3 pieces large eggs
• 0.5 cup red bell pepper, diced
• 0.5 cup green bell pepper, diced
• 0.25 cup onion, finely chopped
• 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
• 0.25 cup unsalted cooked ham, diced
• 0.25 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
• 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
• 2 tablespoons skim milk

Directions

Step 1

In a medium bowl, crack the eggs and add the skim milk. Beat the eggs and milk together until well combined and slightly foamy. Set aside.

Step 2

Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the unsalted butter. Let it melt and coat the pan evenly.

Step 3

Add the diced red and green bell peppers and chopped onion to the skillet. Saute for about 4 minutes or until the vegetables are soft.

Step 4

Add the diced unsalted cooked ham to the vegetable mix and cook for another 2 minutes, allowing the ham to warm up.

Step 5

Pour the egg mixture over the vegetables and ham in the skillet. Allow the mixture to cook undisturbed for about 2 minutes.

Step 6

Using a spatula, gently push the cooked portions of the egg from the edges toward the center, allowing uncooked eggs to flow to the edge.

Step 7

Continue cooking and gently stirring until the eggs are basically set but still moist. Sprinkle the fresh ground black pepper and chopped parsley over the omelette.

Step 8

Fold the omelette in half and let it cook for another 1 minute to ensure the center is set.

Step 9

Carefully slide the omelette onto a plate and serve immediately.
