Best Creamy No Fail Cheese Omelet Recipes

CREAM CHEESE & CHIVE OMELET

Steps:

• In a large nonstick skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Whisk the eggs, chives, water, salt and pepper. Add egg mixture to skillet (mixture should set immediately at edges)., As eggs set, push cooked edges toward the center, letting uncooked portion flow underneath. When the eggs are set, sprinkle cream cheese on one side; fold other side over filling. Slide omelet onto a plate; cut in half. Serve with salsa.

CLASSIC CHEESE OMELET

Steps:

• Using a fork, beat eggs with 1 teaspoon water until yolks and whites are completely combined and no streaks remain. The water helps incorporate them and steams while the omelet cooks, which puffs it up. Season with 1/8 teaspoon kosher salt and a few cracks of pepper.
• Heat butter in an 8-inch nonstick skillet over medium-high until foaming;swirl to coat. When foam subsides, pour eggs into center of skillet. Let stand 10 seconds. Stir eggs with a rubber spatula in a circular motion with one hand while shaking skillet with the other, about 15 seconds. Reduce heat to medium. Working your way around skillet, gather outer set eggs toward center, then tip skillet so runny eggs move to outside edges, about 1 minute. Lightly spread any remaining runny eggs evenly over top and cook until creamy but no longer wet.
• Sprinkle cheddar onto far side of omelet. Remove from heat. Tip pan away from you; gently slide spatula under near side of omelet and fold up and over cheese. Slide onto a warm plate. Top with chopped chives and serve, with sliced tomato sprinkled with salt and buttered toast, if desired.

FLUFFY, CREAMY, NO-FAIL OMELET

Steps:

• 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).
• Melt butter in a nonstick skillet on medium. Pour in omelet mixture.
• 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.
• 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).
• Slide onto a plate and cut in half to serve.
