Instructions
Prepare the Mug
Select a microwave-safe mug large enough to prevent overflow during cooking. Lightly coat the inside with a non-stick spray or a few drops of oil to keep the omelet from sticking.
Add the Ingredients
Crack the eggs directly into the mug. Add the milk, diced vegetables (bell peppers, onions and tomatoes), salt and pepper. This is where you can get creative — add any extra seasonings or small toppings to personalize your omelet.
Mix Thoroughly
Use a fork or small whisk to beat the eggs well and stir in the vegetables. Stir until well combined, with no lumps of egg whites or large pieces of vegetables that could cook unevenly.
Microwave the Omelet
Place the mug in the microwave and cook on high for 1 minute. After the first minute, check the omelet and stir if necessary to ensure even cooking. Continue microwaving in 15-second intervals until the eggs are set and fluffy, (about 1–2 minutes total) depending on your microwave’s power.
Check for Doneness
Carefully remove the cup from the microwave (it may be hot) and check to see if the omelet is cooked. The eggs should be firm and fully set; if they still look runny, microwave for an additional 10–15 seconds.
