How To Make an Asparagus Omelette

This recipe is so easy you can make it with your kids. It is a classic omelette recipe filled with asparagus, bacon bits, and parmesan cheese. Make sure you have all the tools and ingredients out before you start cooking to avoid your eggs burning.

To start, heat the skillet to medium heat and drizzle with olive oil. Add the asparagus and season with salt and pepper.

Cook for about 5-10 minutes until slightly charred and tender. Remove from heat and transfer to a plate.

In a mixing bowl, combine the eggs, salt, and pepper. Whisk well to combine until frothy.

Heat the skillet again to medium and drizzle with olive oil.

Add the eggs and, using a spatula, push the edges in as they settle. Cover and cook for about a minute or two. The omelette is done when settled on the bottom and slightly wet on top.

Add the parmesan cheese, cooked bacon, and asparagus to one side of the omelette.

Using a spatula, flip the other side on top.

Remove from the heat and transfer to a plate. Garnish with more bacon bits, parmesan cheese, and fresh parsley. Serve immediately.

What should I pair with the asparagus omelette?

This recipe is so delicious, it fits with everything else you might add to the table. I like adding a side of fruit or baked potatoes. Hot sauce does wonders to this recipe, so don’t skip on it.

Can it be stored for later?

If you have leftovers, store them in the fridge in an airtight container for up to a week. To reheat, sprinkle the omelette with a little water and microwave. You can also reheat it in the oven, which is better because the eggs won’t get that rubbery taste the microwave will add to the eggs.

Should I cook all the vegetables before adding them to the omelette?

This is your personal choice, so feel free to experiment. I cooked the asparagus but not the tomatoes. Make sure the bacon is fully cooked when using it in the omelette.

Can I leave out the bacon?

Yes! If you want a healthier or vegetarian option, you can skip the bacon.
