Notes

Tips and Tricks:
- For a fluffier omelette, use 4 eggs instead.
- If you want to make your omelette extra cheesy, add an additional 1/4 cup of shredded cheese.
- If desired, you can use chives or green onions in place of the salt and pepper.
- Consider adding cooked vegetables like peppers, mushrooms, or spinach to the egg mixture for a nutritious boost.
- For a vegan cheese omelette, substitute your favorite plant-based milk and vegan cheese shreds in place of the dairy ingredients.
- To make ahead for meal prep, prepare the omelette as directed and store in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Then reheat before serving.
- For a gluten-free cheese omelette, use a gluten-free flour blend instead of regular all-purpose flour.
Enjoy your cheese omelette! Get creative with the ingredients you have on hand and make it your own. Bon Appétit!
