Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Gather all ingredients and ensure they are properly measured.
- Shred the cheddar cheese if not already shredded.
- Dice the turkey ham into small, bite-sized pieces.
- Place a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
- Spray the skillet lightly with cooking spray oil.
- Once the skillet is heated, add the diced turkey ham.
- Stir occasionally and cook for about 2-3 minutes until the ham is slightly browned.
- Remove the ham from the skillet and set it aside.
- Crack the eggs into a bowl and whisk them until the yolks and whites are fully combined.
- Season with a pinch of salt and pepper if desired (optional).
- Spray the skillet again lightly with cooking spray if needed.
- Pour the whisked eggs into the skillet, tilting the pan to spread them evenly.
- Let the eggs set without stirring for about 2 minutes, or until the edges begin to cook and the center is slightly runny.
- Sprinkle the cooked turkey ham evenly over one half of the omelet.
- Then, evenly sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the ham.
- Using a spatula, gently fold the omelet in half, covering the filling.
- Cook for another 1-2 minutes, allowing the cheese to melt and the eggs to finish cooking.
- Slide the omelet onto a plate.
- Serve immediately while hot.
Tips:
- Tip 1: Make sure to preheat your pan before adding the eggs to ensure they cook evenly.
- Tip 2: Use a non-stick pan and a short spray of cooking spray to prevent the omelet from sticking.
- Tip 3: Cook the turkey ham first to give it a slight crisp before adding the eggs.
- Tip 4: When adding the cheddar cheese, allow it to melt slightly before folding the omelet for an even distribution of cheese.
- Tip 5: Use medium heat to avoid overcooking the eggs and to achieve a fluffy omelet.
