Ingredients:
- 2 large eggs
- 2 tbsp milk or water
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 1/2 tbsp butter
- 1/4 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or your favorite)
Instructions:
- In a small bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk (or water), salt, and pepper until the mixture is well combined and slightly frothy.
- Heat the butter in a non-stick skillet over medium heat until melted and slightly bubbly.
- Pour the egg mixture into the skillet, tilting the pan to ensure it spreads evenly.
- Let the eggs cook undisturbed for about 1-2 minutes, or until the edges start to set. Use a spatula to gently lift the edges, allowing any uncooked egg to flow to the edges.
- Once the omelet is mostly set but still slightly runny on top, sprinkle the shredded cheese over one half of the omelet.
- Fold the omelet in half over the cheese and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the eggs are fully cooked.
- Slide the omelet onto a plate and serve warm.
