Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• Eggs
• Milk
• Butter

• Mushroom

1. 
    

   Cut up vegetables and either ham or bacon and saute in butter until vegetables are tender.

2. 
    

   Beat 3 eggs together and add a couple teaspoons of milk. The milk is optional, however, it makes the omelet fluffy.

   Cook until the egg becomes more solid. Lift the edges of the egg and allow the liquid egg on top to run under the egg and cook into the omelet.
