Ingredients
- 1 cup (cooked) Macaroni
- 1 cup (small, chopped) Broccoli florets
- 4 Eggs
- 2 tablespoons Milk
- 1 cup (shredded) Cheddar cheese
- 2 teaspoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Butter
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 tablespoon (chopped, optional for garnish) Parsley
Directions
Step 1
Cook macaroni according to package instructions, drain, and set aside.
Step 2
Steam or blanch the chopped broccoli florets until slightly tender but still vibrant green. Set aside.
Step 3
In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder until well combined.
Step 4
Heat 1 teaspoon of olive oil and the butter in a medium non-stick skillet over medium heat. Swirl to coat the pan evenly.
Step 5
Add the cooked macaroni and broccoli to the skillet. Sauté for 1-2 minutes until heated through.
Step 6
Reduce the heat to low, and pour the egg mixture evenly over the macaroni and broccoli. Tilt the pan to spread the eggs out if needed.
Step 7
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the top of the egg mixture.
Step 8
Cover the skillet with a lid and let the omelet cook on low heat for about 8-10 minutes, or until the eggs are fully set and the cheese is melted.
Step 9
Carefully slide the omelet onto a plate, or fold it in half if desired.
Step 10
Garnish with chopped parsley, if using, and serve warm.
