This hearty and flavorful dish combines earthy mushrooms, salty bacon, juicy cherry tomatoes, and rich cheddar cheese, all wrapped in a fluffy egg base.

Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Slice 1/3 cup of mushrooms.
- Cut 1 strip of bacon into small pieces.
- Halve 1/2 cup of cherry tomatoes.
- Shred 1/3 cup of cheddar cheese.
- In a non-stick skillet, heat 2 tsp of olive oil over medium heat.
- Add the bacon pieces and cook until crispy. Remove and set aside, leaving the oil in the skillet.
- In the same skillet, add the sliced mushrooms and cook until they become tender, about 3-4 minutes.
- Add the cherry tomatoes to the skillet and cook for an additional 2 minutes until they begin to soften.
- Remove the mushrooms and tomatoes from the skillet and set aside with the bacon.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 eggs and 1 tbsp of milk. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Return the skillet to the stove over medium-low heat, and add 1 tsp of butter. Allow the butter to melt and coat the skillet.
- Pour the egg mixture into the skillet, tilting the pan so the eggs evenly cover the surface.
- Allow the eggs to cook undisturbed for about 1-2 minutes until they start to set around the edges.
- Evenly distribute the cooked bacon, mushrooms, and cherry tomatoes over one-half of the omelette.
- Sprinkle 1/3 cup of shredded cheddar cheese over the fillings.
- Using a spatula, carefully fold the other half of the omelette over the fillings.
- Continue cooking for another 1-2 minutes until the cheese is melted and the eggs are fully set.
- Slide the omelette onto a plate.
- Garnish with extra cheese or herbs if desired.
- Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious Mushroom, Bacon, and Tomato Omelette!
Tips:
- Prepping ingredients beforehand ensures a smoother cooking process and helps you achieve perfect timing.
- Cook the bacon first to render its fat and use that to sauté the mushrooms for added flavor.
- Whisk the eggs well with milk to make the omelette extra fluffy.
- Cooking the omelette on medium-low heat helps avoid overcooking and achieves a tender texture.
- Allow the cheese to melt thoroughly by adding it in the last minute of cooking and then folding the omelette gently.
