- 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.

- Using a spatula, gently fold the omelet in half, covering the filling.

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.
