Best 8 Bacon And Cheese Omelet Recipes

BACON, MUSHROOM, AND CHEESE OMELET

Steps:

• Crack the eggs into a bowl, add the milk, and beat them well. Melt the butter in a 7-inch nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the eggs and scramble slightly. Allow the eggs to coat the pan and cook evenly. Crumble the bacon into the eggs, add the mushrooms and cheese, and cook for 1 minute. Carefully slide 1 end of the omelet onto a plate while folding the other end over on top, like a taco. Garnish with scallions and serve immediately.

ASPARAGUS, MUSHROOM, AND BACON OMELET WITH CHEESE

Steps:

• Steam the asparagus just until tender-crisp (3-5 minutes); drain.
• Sauté mushrooms & garlic in reserved bacon grease until cooked and moisture has evaporated (about 2 minutes).
• In a medium bowl, beat together the eggs, cottage cheese, salt, and pepper until completely blended.
• Coat an 8-inch nonstick skillet with cooking spray.
• Heat the skillet over medium-high heat until just hot enough to sizzle when a drop of water is added; pour in the egg mixture.
• With an inverted pancake turner, lift the edges as the mixture begins to set to allow the uncooked portion to flow underneath.
• When the top is set, fill one half of the omelet with the asparagus, mushrooms, bacon, and cheese.
• With the pancake turner, fold the omelet in half over the filling.
• Slide onto a plate, and serve.

BACON AND CHEESE OVEN OMELET

Steps:

• Fry bacon and drain; chop into pieces. (I make mine in the microwave).
• Arrange cheese slices in the bottom of a lightly-buttered 9 inch pie pan. (I use glass.).
• Beat together eggs and milk with a fork. Add chopped bacon and pour over cheese.
• Bake at 350° for 45 to 50 minutes, until eggs are set in the middle.
• Let stand 5 minutes before cutting.
• Note: you can reheat left-over portions in the microwave upside down, with cheese on the top.
• You might want to add some herbs on the top, too!

BACON, MUSHROOM AND PEPPER JACK CHEESE OMELET

Steps:

• Lightly spray 8-inch skillet with no-stick spray. Heat skillet over medium heat.
• In a bowl beat together eggs, milk, salt and pepper until frothy. Pour into heated skillet.
• Cook, uncovered, without stirring for about 4 minutes and eggs start to set. As eggs start to set, run a spatula around the edge of the skillet and lift eggs slightly so the uncooked portion can flow underneath.
• When eggs are almost set, sprinkle the crumbled bacon pieces, sliced mushrooms and Pepper Jack cheese down the center of the omelet; let cook another 1 to 2 minutes, or until eggs are set throughout and the cheese is just starting to melt.
• Fold the omelet in thirds by folding one side of the omelet over the filling, and then folding the other side over the first side.
• Transfer the omelet to a plate. Garnish the top of the omelet with sliced black olives and green onion slices.

BACON AND CHEESE OMELET

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350-degrees F.
• Butter a 9-inch round baking dish.
• Arrange cheese slices on the bottom of the dish.
• Cook bacon in a large skillet over low heat until done but still flexible. Drain well on paper towels.
• Chop 4 slices of the bacon and then half the remaining 3 slices crosswise, curling them into a spiral. Set aside.
• Whisk eggs and milk together. Season with salt and pepper and then stir in the chopped bacon.
• Pour milk/egg/bacon mixture over the cheese.
• Bake for 25-30 minutes.
• Place parsley sprigs in center of omlet and arrange bacon curls around the edge.
• Bake 5 more minutes and then cool 5 minutes before slicing into wedges to serve.

OMELET WITH BACON AND PARMESAN CHEESE

Steps:

• Cook 2 pieces of bacon on medium-low heat in 10-inch saute pan,until browned but not super crisp. After first side has browned, turn over to brown other side. The second side will take almost no time.
• Place cooked bacon on paper-towel-lined plate, and blot top with paper towel. When cool, crumble bacon and set aside.
• Pour off all but 1 tablespoon of bacon grease.
• With a fork, lightly beat eggs with Italian seasoning. Do not add salt; I don't think pepper is needed, either.
• Heat pan with remaining bacon grease to medium heat. Then pour in egg batter.
• As egg sets, gently push egg batter from pan's side toward 2 inches from center with a spatula, and repeat on other side. Let fluid egg batter fill exposed pan.
• Again, as egg sets, begin 90 degrees from before, push egg batter from pan's side, etc. The idea is to ensure that uncooked egg batter gets exposed to the heat. Try not to end up with all of the egg piled in the center of the pan. :wink:
• As top of egg starts to set, sprinkle crumbled bacon on one half of omelet. Sprinkle parmesan cheese across entire top surface of omelet. If bottom of omelet seems set, but top is not done, put a lid on the pan for about a minute to assist.
• When top has set, turn off heat, turn bacon-less half over to cover bacon half. With spatula, cut in half and serve half on one plate, and other half on another plate.
• Serves two, each is a 3-egg omelet.

OMELET WITH SMOKED BLEU CHEESE AND CARAMELIZED BACON

Steps:

• Whisk the eggs in a bowl with some cracked black pepper.
• Stir in the blue cheese.
• Heat up the (garlic-flavored) olive oil and/or butter in an omelet pan on medium heat.
• Pour in the eggs (and garlic if using) and cook gently until just ready to fold.
• Fold the sides in to the center of the omelet and plate. (Yes, the center of the omelet will be slightly runny.) The bottom of the omelet should not be brown at all.
• Garnish with a small amount of bleu cheese, the crumbled bacon, chopped hazelnuts and fresh parsley.
• We served our omelet with steamed carrots and roasted small Yukon gold potatoes for an easy weeknight meal.

B.A.B.B. BACON, AVOCADO, BASIL AND BLUE CHEESE OMELET

Steps:

• Diced bacon and cook until crispy in frying pan. Remove bacon and set aside and discard the oil fat. Wash or wipe the frying pan and put back on the stove in medium heat. Melt the butter in the pan. Lightly beat the eggs in a small bowl and immediately pour in the pan. As the eggs begin to settle, use a spatula/ wooden spoon, push the eggs towards the center while tilting the pan to distribute runny parts. Continue this motion until eggs stop flowing. Start adding the bacon, basil, avocado and blue cheese on one side of the egg. Leave to cook until the edges/bottom is browned. Fold omelette into half and serve!
