instructions
    1

    Crack 3 eggs into a bowl and add 1 teaspoon of salt and 1 teaspoon of pepper. Whisk the eggs until well combined.

    2

    In a non-stick skillet, melt 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat until it foams.

    3

    Pour the whisked eggs into the skillet, tilting the pan to ensure even distribution. Allow the eggs to cook for approximately 2-3 minutes until the edges set.

    4

    Using a spatula, gently lift the edges of the omelet and allow the uncooked eggs to flow underneath.

    5

    Once the center is slightly runny but the edges are firm, sprinkle 1 cup of cheese over one half of the omelet.

    6

    Fold the omelet in half over the cheese, and cook for another 1-2 minutes until the cheese melts and the eggs are cooked to your liking.

    7

    Slide the omelet onto a plate and serve immediately.
