The Ultimate Omelet Recipe

This is the Ultimate Omelet Recipe coming from my grandpa himself! He owned a cafe in Bountiful, UT in the early 1960s where he would make breakfast and lunch for the local citizens! This omelet recipe comes from his time as a cafe owner. Although his time owning a cafe was short, he still has been making these omelets for 60+ years for his family! I am fortunate enough to have had the recipe passed down to me! Of course, our butter and cheese options will be coming from Cache Valley® Creamery! Some of the best quality you can acquire for cheese and butter in general! Combine that with quality eggs, you’ll have yourself one heck of a breakfast!

Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients

  

• 8 large eggs
• 1/4 cup sliced green pepper
• 1/4 cup sweet onion finely chopped
• 1/4 cup diced ham
• 1/4 cup Cache Valley® Creamery Mozzarella Cheese shredded
• 1/4 cup Cache Valley® Creamery Mild Cheddar Cheese shredded
• Salt and pepper to taste

Equipment

• Electronic Skillet

Method

 

1. Prepare the Ingredients:
2. Crack the 8 eggs into a large mixing bowl and whisk until fully combined. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
3. Slice the green pepper, chop the sweet onion, and dice the ham.
4. Add the sliced green pepper, chopped onion, and diced ham to the bowl with the eggs. Stir in the 1/4 cup each of Cache Valley® Creamery Mozzarella and Mild Cheddar Cheese. Mix well.
5. Preheat the Electric Skillet:
6. Set your electric skillet to 400°F (200°C) and let it preheat. Add 1-2 tablespoons of Cache Valley® Creamery Butter and allow it to melt or heat up.
7. Cook the Omelet:
8. Pour the egg mixture, which includes the vegetables, ham, and cheese, into the preheated skillet. Let it cook undisturbed for about 1-2 minutes until the edges begin to set.
9. Gently lift the edges of the omelet with a spatula and tilt the skillet to allow any uncooked eggs to flow to the edges.
10. Add the Cheese:
11. Once the omelet is mostly set but still slightly runny on top, sprinkle the remaining 1/4 cup each of Cache Valley® Creamery Mozzarella and Mild Cheddar evenly over one half of the omelet.
12. Fold and Finish Cooking:
13. Carefully cut the omelet down the middle with a spatula. Roll both sides of the omelet towards the center, creating a cylindrical shape with the cheese inside.
14. Close the electric skillet lid (if available) and let the rolled omelet cook for another 1-2 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the omelet is fully cooked.
15. Serve and Enjoy:
16. Gently slide the rolled omelet onto a plate.
17. Serve hot and enjoy the rich, cheesy flavors of your breakfast with Cache Valley® Creamery cheeses!
