Pizza Omelet Recipe
Ingredients:
- 3 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons milk
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 1 tablespoon olive oil or butter
- 1/4 cup pizza sauce
- 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/4 cup sliced pepperoni or other preferred pizza toppings (e.g., mushrooms, bell peppers, onions, olives)
- 1/4 teaspoon dried oregano

Instructions:
- Prepare the Eggs:
- In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper until well combined.
- Heat the Pan:
- Heat the olive oil or butter in a non-stick skillet over medium heat until melted and hot.
- Cook the Omelet:
- Pour the egg mixture into the skillet, swirling it around to create an even layer.
- Cook until the edges start to set, about 2-3 minutes.
- Add Pizza Sauce:
- Gently spread the pizza sauce over one half of the omelet using the back of a spoon.
- Add Cheese and Toppings:
- Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese over the pizza sauce.
- Add the sliced pepperoni or your choice of pizza toppings evenly over the cheese.
- Season:
- Sprinkle dried oregano over the toppings for an extra pizza flavor.
- Fold the Omelet:
- Carefully fold the omelet in half, covering the toppings.
- Continue to cook for another 1-2 minutes until the cheese is melted and the eggs are fully cooked.
- Serve:
- Slide the omelet onto a plate.
- Garnish with fresh basil or parsley if desired.
- Serve hot and enjoy!
Tips:
- Customize the toppings to your preference, such as adding cooked sausage, bacon, spinach, or any other favorite pizza ingredients.
- For a fluffier omelet, you can separate the egg whites and yolks, beat the whites until soft peaks form, then fold in the yolks before cooking.
Enjoy your pizza omelet, a perfect combination of breakfast and a beloved pizza flavor!
