This ham and cheese omelet is so easy and so good. I usually sauté the ham before adding it to the omelet so it gets crispy and more flavorful.
Ingredients
- 2 teaspoons vegetable oil
- 4 slices deli ham , chopped into small pieces
- 2 eggs
- 2 teaspoons chopped fresh chives , divided
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
- freshly ground black pepper to taste
- 0.25 cups shredded Cheddar cheese
Instructions
-
1
Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add ham and cook until browned and crispy, stirring frequently, about 7 minutes.
-
2
Beat eggs with 1 teaspoon chives, salt, and pepper in a small bowl.
-
3
Pour egg mixture into the skillet; let cook for 30 seconds. Lift the edges of the omelet so that uncooked egg runs under cooked edges and comes into contact with the hot skillet. Shake and tilt the skillet to move uncooked egg. Sprinkle Cheddar cheese on top and fold omelette in half. Flip and cook until egg is entirely set and cheese has melted, 30 seconds to 1 minute.

Slide onto a plate and sprinkle with remaining 1 teaspoon chives.

The Best Veggie Burger
These veggie burgers are hearty, savory, and rich in meaty flavor, thanks to cremini mushrooms, rice, black beans, and walnuts. Your family may think you made them with real meat! The texture is a little softer than a beef patty, but a wonderful contrast to the beautiful, pan-fried crust that really stands up to the bun and toppings.
No Sugar Added Cookies
Sugarless fruity cookie, great for those watching their sugar intake.
Chef John's White Bread
White bread is buttery and slightly sweet with a neutral flavor that lets the sandwich ingredients shine. I mostly eat whole wheat bread, but I occasionally indulge in some white. Whether you're a nostalgic baby boomer like I am, or just a curious millennial wondering what classic white bread should taste like, I really do hope you give this a try soon.
