- Cooking spray
- 2 cups mixed veggies I like diced up onions, peppers, mushrooms and zucchini
- 1 cup ham or kielbasa diced
- 1/2 cup cheddar cheese grated
- 8 eggs
- Salt & pepper to taste
Saute veggies with a bit of olive oil or cooking spray in a large skillet, seasoning with salt and pepper, over med-high heat for 2-3 minutes until softened.
Spray four 16 oz mason jars with cooking spray. Divide veggies, ham and cheese evenly among jars, then add a pinch each of salt & pepper and crack 2 eggs into each jar if eating within 2 days.
To make them last longer, add everything but eggs, then add eggs fresh the morning of. They will last up to 5 days this way.
Mix up with a fork. When ready to eat, microwave for 2 minutes. Serve and enjoy!
NOTE: This recipe makes 4 omelettes. You will need to halve the recipe to make 2 (it depends how much you want to prep ahead).
Add in more toppings like spinach, tomatoes, bacon or breakfast sausage.
To make the omelettes extra fluffy, whisk in a bit of milk before microwaving.
If you want to make egg white omelettes, substitute the 2 whole eggs for 4 egg whites or 1/2 cup liquid egg whites. Cook for 1 minute 30 seconds instead of a full 2 minutes.
Store the mason jars with the eggs in the fridge for 2 days, or without the eggs for 5 days.
