kcalAll the way from the Mile High City, this classic omelet has all of my favorite breakfast options in one place. Vegetables, cheese, and savory meat make this a perfect keto meal for my weekday mornings, especially with sauteed garlic, which adds an additional flavor punch to the overall dish.
Ingredients
1 tbsp butter
1/4 cup chopped onion
1/4 cup chopped red bell pepper
1/4 cup chopped green bell pepper
1/2 tsp minced garlic
1/4 cup diced cooked ham
2 eggs, beaten
1/4 tsp salt
1/8 tsp freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
Directions
- In a medium nonstick skillet over medium-high heat, melt the butter.
- Add the onion, red bell pepper, green bell pepper, garlic, and ham. Saute until the ham is crisp, about 2 minutes.
- In a small bowl, beat the eggs with the salt and pepper. Pour the eggs into the skillet with the vegetables and ham. Reduce the heat to medium.
- Cook the eggs for 3 to 4 minutes. Flip the omelet over. After flipping, top one-half of the omelet with the Cheddar cheese.
- After 1 to 2 minutes, fold the omelet over, covering the cheese. Cook for another 1 to 2 minutes, until the cheese melts.
- Remove the omelet from the skillet to a plate, and serve.
