Ingredients

• 3 large Eggs
• 2 tablespoons Milk
• 0.25 teaspoons Salt
• 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Unsalted butter
• 0.5 cups Mushrooms
• 0.5 cups Bell peppers (any color)
• 0.25 cups Shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or your choice)
• 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Crack the eggs into a medium bowl. Add the milk, salt, and black pepper. Whisk until the mixture is well combined and slightly frothy.

Step 2

Wash and slice the mushrooms and bell peppers into thin, bite-sized pieces.

Step 3

Heat olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the mushrooms and bell peppers. Sauté for 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are tender and slightly caramelized. Remove the vegetables from the skillet and set aside.

Step 4

Reduce the heat to medium-low. Add unsalted butter to the skillet and let it melt, ensuring the entire surface of the skillet is coated.

Step 5

Pour the egg mixture into the skillet, tilting the pan to ensure it spreads evenly. Let it cook undisturbed for about 1-2 minutes, or until the edges just start to set.

Step 6

Sprinkle the sautéed mushrooms, bell peppers, and shredded cheese evenly over one half of the omelet. Allow the omelet to cook for another 1-2 minutes, or until the cheese begins to melt and the middle is mostly set but still slightly soft.

Step 7

Gently fold the empty side of the omelet over the filled side using a spatula. Let it cook for an additional 1 minute to ensure everything is warmed through.

Step 8

Carefully slide the omelet onto a plate. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley, if desired. Serve immediately and enjoy!
