Description
From skillet to plate: This omelet is your new breakfast obsession.
Ingredients
Scale
- 5 XL eggs
- About 3/4 to 1 cup shredded cheese (your fave works here!)
- Around 1/2 to 3/4 cup bacon bits
- 1/2 onion, finely chopped
- 3 large white mushrooms, sliced
- Spices (totally optional, but we went with Aromat, dried parsley, oregano, and thyme)
Instructions
- Heat a little butter (garlic butter adds extra flair) in a pan over medium heat.
- Toss in the onions and mushrooms, sautéing them to golden perfection. Once they’re just how you like them, set them aside.
- Crack the eggs into a big bowl, then stir in the cheese, bacon bits, and your favorite spices.
- Add a pat of butter to your pan (garlic butter again if you’re feeling fancy) and set it over medium-high heat.
- Pour in half the egg mixture, tilting the pan to spread it evenly.
- Let it cook until the edges set, but keep an eye on the bottom; you don’t want it burning.
- If the top’s taking forever to set, pop a lid on to speed things up.
- Once the omelet is mostly cooked, sprinkle half the sautéed onions and mushrooms on one side.
- Carefully fold the other side over. Don’t stress if it’s not perfect, rustic is charming, right? Slide the omelet onto a plate, and your breakfast is ready.
- Repeat with the rest of the mixture for the second omelet. Serve hot and enjoy.
Pro Tips:
- Want extra fluff? Whisk your eggs till they’re frothy before adding the mix-ins.
- No bacon? Swap it for cooked sausage, ham, or go veggie with spinach or bell peppers.
- Leftover mushrooms and onions? Toss them into tomorrow’s stir-fry, waste not, want not.
