For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a pinch of smoked paprika to the egg mixture. If you prefer a runnier omelet, reduce the cooking time slightly. Experiment with different cheeses! Gruyere, Monterey Jack, or even a sprinkle of goat cheese would be delicious. To prevent the omelet from sticking, ensure your non-stick skillet is in good condition and properly greased.
