Instructions
- In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper until well combined.
- Place a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the butter. Let it melt and coat the bottom of the pan.
- Add the diced onion and green bell pepper into the pan. Stir occasionally until they soften, about 3-4 minutes.
- Throw in the diced ham and cook for an additional 2 minutes. Transfer the cooked ham and veggies to a plate.
- Lower the heat to medium-low and pour the whisked egg mixture into the same skillet.
- Once the edges of the eggs start to set, sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the entire surface. Let it melt into the eggs like it's cuddling a warm blanket.
- Place the cooked ham, onions, and green bell peppers on one side of the omelette.
- Carefully fold the other half of the omelette over your pile of veggies and ham.
- Slide your omelette onto a plate and serve!

Notes
- Whisk Wonders: Give those eggs a good whisk until they're nice and frothy. This isn't just for your forearm workout; it's to get air into the eggs, which makes for a fluffier omelette.
- Veggie Volume: Feel free to adjust the amount of onions and bell peppers to your liking. If you’re a veggie lover, pile 'em on! If not, it's totally okay to be a minimalist.
- Cheese Choices: While cheddar is classic, feel free to mix it up with Monterey Jack, Swiss, or whatever cheese makes your heart melt. The omelette police won’t come knocking, I promise.
- Heat Harmony: Keep an eye on the heat – you want it medium to start, then lower it to medium-low when you pour in the eggs. This helps prevent the bottom from getting too brown before the top is set.
- Serve it Up: This omelette pairs beautifully with a slice of toasted sourdough or a pile of crispy hash browns. And hey, if it's a weekend, why not a splash of hot sauce for a bit of zing?
