  • 1/2 cup of diced bell pepper , offering a crisp and vibrant addition to the recipe, adding a fresh and crunchy texture, as well as a pop of color to the dish.
  • 1/2 teaspoon of salt enhancing the flavors of the other ingredients, bringing a balanced and well-seasoned taste to the dish, ensuring a harmonious and delicious flavor.
  • 1/2 cup of diced tomatoes , providing a juicy and tangy burst of flavor to the recipe, adding a refreshing and bright element to the overall taste.
  • 1/4 cup of water adding moisture and helping to create a light and airy texture in the dish, ensuring a moist and tender result.
  • 1/2 cup of ham diced, bringing a savory and hearty component to the dish, adding a delicious and smoky flavor that complements the other ingredients perfectly.
  • 1 1/2 cups of shredded Cheddar cheese creating a rich and cheesy layer that melts beautifully, adding a creamy and indulgent texture to the dish, creating a delightful and gooey goodness in every bite.
  • 1/2 cup of bacon diced and fried, offering a crispy and salty addition that adds a delightful crunch and smoky flavor to the recipe, bringing a burst of savory goodness to the dish.
  • 1/2 cup of onions diced, adding a savory and aromatic element to the dish, bringing a subtle sweetness and depth of flavor to the overall taste.
  • 2/3 cup of breakfast sausage cooked and diced, providing a savory and seasoned element that adds depth and richness to the overall flavor, bringing a satisfying and meaty texture to the dish.
  • 2 tablespoons of butter providing a rich and luscious base for the dish, adding a creamy and smooth texture to the overall recipe, enhancing the richness and flavor.
  • 2/3 cup of shredded roast beef or diced deli roast beef adding a tender and succulent component to the dish, infusing it with a rich and savory flavor, creating a hearty and satisfying experience.

Instructions

  • Chop the onions, bell peppers, tomatoes, ham, and roast beef into small, bite-sized pieces. Cook the bacon until crispy and crumble it into smaller bits.
    Cook and dice the breakfast sausage. Shred the Cheddar cheese and set all the ingredients aside.
  • Crack the eggs and whisk them until the yolks and whites are fully combined. Adding a splash of water while whisking will make the omelette lighter and fluffier.
  • Take a saucepan or frying pan and melt the butter over medium heat. Add the diced onions and bell peppers, cooking them until they become tender and slightly translucent.
    Next, add the diced tomatoes, ham, breakfast sausage, and roast beef. Cook everything together for a few minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
  • Pour the whisked eggs into the pan with the sautéed fillings. Gently stir the mixture, ensuring that the fillings are evenly distributed. Sprinkle the shredded Cheddar cheese on top of the egg and filling mixture.
    Cover the pan with a lid and cook on low heat for a few minutes or until the eggs are set and the cheese has melted.
  • Once the eggs are fully cooked and the cheese has melted, it's time to fold the omelette. Use a spatula to carefully fold one side of the omelette over the other, creating a half-moon shape.
    Slide the omelette onto a plate, and it's ready to be served!

Notes

  • You can customize the fillings according to your preference. Feel free to add or substitute ingredients like mushrooms, spinach, or even jalapeños for an extra kick.
  • For a healthier option, you can use egg whites or a combination of whole eggs and egg whites.
  • To enhance the flavor, you can sprinkle some herbs such as parsley, chives, or cilantro on top of the omelette before serving.
