Sprinkle half the omelette with the cheese and cook another couple minutes until the bottom is golden.
Fold one half of the omelette onto itself and cook another couple minutes. Slide it onto a serving plate.
I've made this omelet since I was in my early 20's as a quick and tasty breakfast on 'feeling lazy' mornings. Back then I wasn't as much into gourmet as I was just in to having easy items already on hand.
This is a great omelet to share with somebody. You can use whatever veggies, meat or cheeses you prefer, and adjust it to suit your taste. It is a great way to start any day.
