In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, egg whites, salt, and black pepper until fully combined and slightly frothy.
Clean and slice the mushrooms into thin, even pieces.
Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat and add 1 teaspoon of unsalted butter or coat the pan with nonstick spray.
Add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet and sauté for 3-4 minutes, or until they are tender and golden brown. Remove the mushrooms from the skillet and set aside.
Reduce the skillet heat to medium-low. Pour the egg mixture into the pan, tilting the skillet to ensure the eggs spread evenly across the bottom.
Allow the eggs to cook undisturbed for 2-3 minutes, or until the edges begin to set but the center is still slightly wet.
Sprinkle the sautéed mushrooms and shredded cheddar cheese evenly over half of the omelette.
Using a spatula, carefully fold the plain half of the omelette over the mushroom and cheese side to enclose the filling.
Continue to cook for another 1-2 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the omelette is set to your liking.
Slide the omelette gently onto a plate, garnish with optional herbs if desired, and serve immediately.
