How to make an Avocado Omelette
In a small bowl, combine eggs, milk, salt and pepper. Heat an 8 – 10 inch nonstick skillet over medium heat. Spray the skillet with cooking spray, then pour half of the egg mixture into the skillet.
Cook for 3 minutes. Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese over the eggs and continue cooking for 1 additional minute. Use a rubber spatula to help slide the omelette out of the skillet and onto a plate. Repeat the previous steps one more time with the additional egg mixture.
Top each omelette with California avocado slices, diced cherry tomatoes and fresh chopped basil. Serve the omelette open faced, like you see in this post. Or gently fold the omelette over the ingredients for a more traditional omelette.
