Instructions:

- Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
- Add the diced red pepper and cook for about 3-4 minutes, or until it starts to soften.
- Add the diced bacon to the skillet and cook for another 2-3 minutes until it is heated through and slightly crisp.
- Lower the heat to medium-low.
- Pour the beaten egg into the skillet, ensuring it spreads evenly over the bottom.
- Let the egg cook undisturbed for about 1-2 minutes until it begins to set.
- Once the egg is mostly set but still slightly runny on top, sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the omelet.
- Add the cooked red pepper and bacon mixture on one half of the omelet.
- Add the diced avocado on top of the red pepper and bacon.
- Carefully fold the omelet in half, covering the filling.
- Cook for another minute or so to melt the cheese and heat the filling through.
- Gently slide the omelet onto a plate.
- Garnish with extra avocado or fresh herbs if desired.
- Serve immediately and enjoy your bacon and avocado omelet!
Tips:
- Ensure your avocado is ripe for the best texture and flavor.
- Cook the bacon first to crispy perfection and use the bacon drippings for added flavor when sautéing the red pepper.
- Use a non-stick skillet to prevent the omelet from sticking and to make flipping easier.
- Cook the omelet on medium-low heat to ensure it cooks evenly and doesn't burn.
- Sprinkle the cheddar cheese on one side of the omelet before folding it over to create a gooey cheese center.
- Feel free to customize with additional ingredients like spinach, mushrooms, or tomatoes to suit your taste.
