Ingredients
Scale
- 4 large eggs
- 1 cup sliced mushrooms (button or cremini)
- 1/2 cup freshly grated Swiss cheese
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter

Instructions
- Sauté the Mushrooms: In a nonstick skillet, melt 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat. Add sliced mushrooms, season with salt and pepper, and sauté until golden brown (5-7 minutes).
- Whisk the Eggs: In a bowl, whisk together 4 large eggs with a pinch of salt and pepper until frothy.
- Cook the Eggs: Melt another tablespoon of butter in the same skillet over medium-low heat. Pour in the egg mixture, tilting the pan to spread it evenly.
- Add Cheese & Mushrooms: Once edges set (about 1-2 minutes), sprinkle half of the Swiss cheese on one side of the omelet followed by sautéed mushrooms.
- Fold & Finish: Gently fold the omelet in half using a spatula and cook for another minute until cheese is melty.
- Serve It Up: Slide onto a plate and garnish with fresh herbs if desired.
