Creamy Avocado Cheese Omelette (Printable)

Creamy omelette with avocado, melted cheese, and fresh tomatoes for a satisfying breakfast.

# What You Need:

→ Egg Mixture

01 - 4 large eggs
02 - 2 tablespoons whole milk
03 - Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

→ Filling

04 - 1 ripe avocado, diced
05 - 1 medium tomato, seeded and diced
06 - 1/2 cup shredded cheddar or mozzarella cheese
07 - 2 tablespoons fresh chives or green onions, chopped (optional)

→ Cooking Fat

08 - 1 tablespoon butter or olive oil

# Steps:

01 - Crack the eggs into a mixing bowl. Add the milk, salt, and pepper. Whisk vigorously until well combined and slightly frothy.
02 - Melt the butter or heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat, swirling to coat the surface evenly.
03 - Pour the egg mixture into the heated skillet and cook undisturbed for about 2 minutes, until the edges begin to set while the center remains slightly loose.
04 - Sprinkle the shredded cheese evenly across the surface, followed by the diced tomato. Cover the skillet and cook for 2 to 3 minutes until the cheese starts melting.
05 - Scatter the diced avocado and optional chives or green onions over one half of the omelette. Using a spatula, gently fold the opposing half over the filling.
06 - Cook the folded omelette for 1 additional minute, allowing the cheese to fully melt and the avocado to warm through. Slide onto a plate, slice in half, and serve immediately.

# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • The creaminess from avocado means you barely need any extra fat beyond what coats the pan.
  • It transforms plain eggs into something that feels indulgent without taking more than fifteen minutes.
  • You probably already have every ingredient sitting in your kitchen right now.
02 -
  • If your avocado is overripe it will turn into green paste when folded, so lean toward slightly firm for better texture.
  • Cooking on too high a heat browns the bottom before the cheese has time to melt, so patience on medium is everything.
03 -
  • Let the eggs sit at room temperature for ten minutes before whisking and they will cook more evenly.
  • Shred the cheese yourself instead of buying pre shredded, because the anti caking powder on store bought cheese keeps it from melting smoothly.
