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.
