Ingredients

  • 3 eggs
  • 2 medium slices of cooked bacon
  • 2 slices american cheese
  • 1 tablespoon butter

Steps

  1. Cut or break the bacon into 1-inch pieces.
  2. Cut or break slices of cheese into 1-inch wide strips.
  3. Melt the butter in a pan over high heat.
  4. Make sure the pan is evenly covered in butter.
  5. When half the butter is melted, turn the heat to medium.
  6. Beat or whisk the eggs until evenly colored.
  7. Pour in the eggs.
  8. Rotate the pan so that the egg covers the entire surface of the pan.
  9. Continue rotating until the edges become thick.
  10. Use a spatula to lift the side of the now cooked egg, allowing the remaining liquid egg from the centre to flow underneath onto the pan and start cooking.
  11. Continue to rotate the pan and move the spatula to adjacent areas until most of the liquid egg is cooked.
  12. Lay the cheese down one side of the centre of the omelette.
  13. Place the bacon on top of the cheese.
  14. Carefully flip the side with no ingredients over the top of the bacon and cheese side, so you now have a semi-circle omelette.
  15. Turn to low heat until the cheese has melted.
  16. Makes two servings; great with vegetables or salad.
