Its quick, fast, easy and tons of nutrients, not mention inexpensive. Omelettes at most resturaunt joints will cost you a ton of money, especially considering eggs are so cheap. Another great thing about omlettesa are they dont have to just be for breakfast. Infact, during the schol/work week, Ive been known to make omlettes for dinner, and they are always an enjoyed meal. I like to experiment with many different recipes and am rarely disappointed. This recipes is for my basic Ham and Cheese omelette, but there are tons and tons of vesions of omlettes.
The ingredients in this recipe are for two nice size omlettes, if more or less is needed, adjust recipe accordingly.
Ingredients
2 eggs .30
2 egg whites .30
1 tablespoon milk .20
1/4 cup diced ham .60
1/4 cup shredded cheese .33
crack whole eggs, seperate out two eggs from yoke
beat the eggs and eggwhites together
add milk, ham and cheese
heat skillet with cooking spray

pour in half the egg batter
with a spoon, spatula or tilting the pan, move the egg around in pan so it is evenly cooking throughout.
after 5 minutes put lid on pan so eggs continue to cook, remove lid periodically and move pan around
take spatulla and lightly lift sides to see if egg is browning on bottom.
As the top of the omlette begins to be solid(not loose egg) lift sides of omlette and flip one side to the otherside.
