Making a basic omelette can be a life saver when you want to get a meal on the table that is easy, delicious, nutritious and fast.

In the video below, I am sharing my go-to technique for making a really good omelette.

Remember to use this recipe as your blueprint when you want to try different flavors and fillers.  You would just add in your toppings, when I add in the cheese.  So many options, so have fun with it.

Ingredients

  • 1-2 teaspoons of coconut oil butter, or olive oil*
  • 2 large eggs beaten
  • pinch of salt and pepper
  • 2 tablespoons shredded cheese

Instructions

  • Crack to eggs in a small bowl and beat with a fork until mixed well.
  • Heat an 8-inch non stick skillet over a medium low heat.
  • Melt the oil or butter in the pan and swirl it around to coat the bottom of the pan.
  • Add eggs to the pan and season with salt and pepper.
  • Gently move the eggs around the pan as they begin to set up. I like to pull the edges of the eggs towards the center of the pan, allowing the loose eggs to spill over.
  • Continue until your eggs have set up and you have a thin layer of loose egg on the top of the omelet.
  • Add cheese to one half of the omelette and fold the omelette onto itself to create a half moon. Slide out of the pan and enjoy.

Notes

*Never use a non stick cooking spray in your non-stick skillets. They will ruin your pans. Instead stick to a pat of butter or oil.
