For a quick breakfast, learn how to make this mushroom omelet. Sautéing the mushrooms with garlic adds a punch of flavor to this healthy breakfast recipe.

Ingredients:
  • 2 teaspoons unsalted butter
  • 2 ounces sliced mixed mushrooms (such as oyster, cremini and shiitake)
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tablespoon whole milk
  • ½ teaspoon chopped fresh tarragon
  • ⅛ teaspoon salt
  • ⅛ teaspoon ground pepper
  • 3 tablespoons shredded fontina cheese
  • ½ teaspoon chopped fresh chives
Directions:
  1. Melt butter in a small nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add mushrooms; cook, stirring often, until tender and lightly browned, 5 to 7 minutes. Add garlic; cook, stirring constantly, until fragrant, about 1 minute.
  2. Meanwhile, whisk eggs, milk, tarragon, salt and pepper in a small bowl. Once the mushrooms are tender, stir the egg mixture into the pan. Cook, tilting the pan to let the egg run around the edges, until the egg forms a thin, even layer. Continue to cook, reducing the heat if browning too quickly, until just slightly wet, 1 to 2 minutes. Sprinkle with cheese. Use a spatula to roll up the omelet. Transfer to a plate; sprinkle with chives.
