Instructions
- Add 6 eggs, salt and pepper to a small bowl and beat.
- Add 1 tbsp butter to a skillet on medium heat. Add peppers and cook for a 3-4 minutes. Add ham and cook for an additional 2 minutes. Pour into a bowl and set aside.
- Add ½ tbsp butter to the skillet on medium heat and pour 1/3 of the eggs into the skillet and cook for about 1-2 minutes. Smooth over the top of the omelette. Sprinkle on ⅓ of the grated Monterey Jack cheese and ⅓ the veggies over one half of the omelet.
- Fold the omelette in half with a rubber spatula and cook an additional minute.
- Repeat for each omelet.
- Serve with salsa, sour cream or guacamole.
- NOTE: If you like your eggs well-done, cover the pan with the lid after you've smoothed over the eggs, and let it rest for 30 seconds so they cook longer.
