How to make an Omelet

First decide what kind of omelet you would like. My hubby likes any kind of omelet, and even when we go out for breakfast, he orders an omelet.

Here's the way I make omelets.
-Crack two eggs in a bowl and beat with a fork.
-Cut up a little onion, bell peppers, and ham, mushrooms or whatever, and add to a skillet with a little butter.
-After they are tender, move them to one side of the pan and pour in the eggs.
-Put a lid on the pan till the eggs are set, then open the lid and push the the veggies and meat on top of the eggs. Cover with a slice of cheese.
-Grab your spatula and flip one side of the eggs onto the other side with the cheese. Replace lid and turn stove off.
-In a few minutes the cheese should be melted, then use your spatula to move the omelet to a plate.

Tip: For fluffier omelets add a pinch of cornstarch before beating.
