Ingredients

2 large eggs

2 tablespoons shredded cheddar cheese

1 tablespoon milk

⅛ teaspoon salt

⅛ teaspoon ground black pepper

1 teaspoon butter (for greasing the bowl)

1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives (optional)

1 tablespoon diced bell pepper (optional)


Instructions

  • Grease a microwave-safe bowl or mug with butter to prevent sticking.

  • Crack the eggs into the bowl, add milk, salt, and pepper, and whisk until well combined.

  • Stir in shredded cheddar cheese and optional ingredients like chives or diced bell pepper if desired.

  • Microwave on high for 1 minute. Stir gently, then microwave for another 30-60 seconds until eggs are set.

  • Carefully remove from microwave, let cool for 1 minute, and serve immediately.

Notes

For a fluffier omelet, add a splash of milk (or omit for a denser texture).

This recipe can be easily doubled; just ensure you use a larger bowl and adjust cooking time slightly.
