Omelet is a simple, yet filling breakfast. I love that you can create any filling you want and use leftover vegetables in the fridge.

Today I added cooked ground sausage from our local farmer, chopped red sweet peppers, onion, and shredded Swiss cheese.

I will be adding more omelet variations.

How to Make Omelet Italian Style

Ingredients

8 organic pastured eggs

1/2 lbs ground sausage

2 red bell peppers, chopped

1 medium onion, chopped

1/2 cup shredded Swiss cheese

salt & pepper, to taste

4 Tbsp olive oil

omelet

Wash and cut onion and red bell peppers. Heat 1 Tbsp olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the vegetables, add a pinch of salt and saute for about 3 minutes. Remove from skillet and set aside.

Cook the ground sausage in the skillet until cooked through, about 5 -7 minutes. Transfer to the plate with the onion and bell peppers.

In a bowl whisk 2 eggs and add a dash of salt and pepper. Heat over medium-high heat 1 Tbsp olive oil in the skillet you cooked the vegetables. Add egg mixture to hot skillet and cook while the eggs sit undisturbed for about a minute until egg mixture is set.  With a spatula flip the omelet on the other side and cook for about 30 seconds.

Transfer to a plate, add filling & cheese and fold omelet in half. Now you can ring the breakfast bell!

While making the remaining omelets, cover with foil to keep warm.

Enjoy!

    Making an assumption that the ground sausage should be cooked before adding to cooked omelet..
