The omelet is a classic breakfast and brunch dish. A very simple cheese omelet can be made very quickly and an omelet with more than one cheese takes very little more time. It's a matter of choosing the three cheeses to use. For this recipe I chose three easy to get flavorful cheeses that are slightly different in color, the cheddar being yellow, Parmesan being pale yellow, and Mozzarella being almost white. The differences in color make a nice variegated surface similar to what you would get when making a pizza with similar cheese toppings.
Ingredients
Breakfast Pizza
4 eggs
2 tablespoon olive oil
2 tablespoon minced onion
1 clove garlic, minced
salt and pepper to taste
1/4 cup mozzarella cheese
1/4 cup cheddar cheese
1/4 cup parmesan cheese
Instructions
1 - Heat a cast iron or other oven-proof skillet on high heat
2 - Add olive oil, then the onion.
3 - Stir well to coat onion with oil, then cook until translucent.
4 - Add minced garlic with stirring and cook another 1 minute (maximum).
5 - Remove the onion and garlic and set aside.
6 - Beat the eggs and season to taste with salt and pepper.
7 - Pour into the skillet on medium to medium high heat and stir with a wire whisk until barely set.
8 - Spread the onion garlic mixture over the top, then all three cheeses.
9 - Place the skillet into an oven preheated to 425 and leave until the cheeses have started to melt.
10 - Remove and serve.
Note - Use of the wire whisk may require a little practice the first time but it is a fast way to cook
the egg without overcooking the bottom. If you choose not to use the wire whisk, then you should set the heat on a lower setting and use 2 forks or a spatula to keep the uncooked part of the eggs moving to the outside edge. Another technique I have used is to set the skillet in the oven when the surface of the beaten eggs is still runny and use the oven heat to cook the top for a minute or so, then remove and add the onion/garlic and the cheeses.
