Fluffy, Creamy, No-Fail Omelet

Submitted by GeeWhiz

"Here it is, the secret to the perfect omelet: cream cheese! From Kraft, slightly modified."

 

• Ready In: 15mins
• Ingredients: 6
• Yields: 1 omelet
• Serves: 2

ingredients

• 2 ounces cream cheese, softened
• 4 eggs
• 2 tablespoons water
• 2 tablespoons shredded cheese, of your choice
• 1 tablespoon green onion, sliced
• 1 teaspoon butter

directions

1. In a medium bowl whisk cream cheese (try the flavored ones!), eggs and water until well blended; stir in the shredded cheese and onions (or try other veggies).
2. Melt butter in a nonstick skillet on medium. Pour in omelet mixture.
3. Cook 3 to 4 minutes or until set: Lift the edges with a spatula and tilt the pan to allow uncooked portions to flow underneath to cook.
4. It's done when firm but still slightly moist on the top - use your spatula and tip the pan to fold the omelet in half (the top will finish cooking once folded).
5. Slide onto a plate and cut in half to serve.
