Ingredients
Scale
Egg Mixture
- 6 large eggs
- ¼ cup milk
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
Vegetables & Cheese
- ½ cup shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or your choice)
- ½ cup diced bell peppers
- ¼ cup diced red onion
- ¼ cup chopped spinach
- ¼ cup diced tomatoes (seeds removed)
Other
- 1 tablespoon olive oil or melted butter (for greasing)
- chopped herbs for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat and Prepare: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a 9×13-inch baking dish with parchment paper, lightly greasing it with olive oil or butter to prevent sticking.
- Whisk Egg Mixture: In a large bowl, vigorously whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper until the mixture is well combined and slightly frothy, ensuring a light texture.
- Add Cheese and Vegetables: Gently fold in the shredded cheese along with the diced bell peppers, red onion, chopped spinach, and diced tomatoes, evenly distributing the ingredients throughout the egg mixture.
- Pour and Spread: Pour the combined mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread it out evenly so the omelette cooks uniformly.
- Bake: Place the dish into the preheated oven and bake for 15 to 18 minutes, or until the eggs are fully set and the top turns a light golden color.
- Cool and Roll: Remove the omelette from the oven and allow it to cool for 2 to 3 minutes. Then, using the parchment paper to assist, carefully lift the entire omelette out of the dish onto a clean surface. Starting from one short end, gently roll the omelette into a log shape, peeling away the parchment paper as you roll.
- Slice and Garnish: Slice the rolled omelette into rounds and garnish with fresh chopped herbs, if desired, to add extra flavor and a pop of color.
- Serve: Enjoy your veggie omelette roll warm or at room temperature, perfect for a quick breakfast or snack, and ideal for meal prepping.
