Ingredients

1/3 cup chopped green pepper
2 tablespoons chopped onion
2 teaspoons olive oil
1 tablespoon butter
3 eggs
3 tablespoons water
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
1/3 cup chopped tomato

Directions

In a small nonstick skillet, saute green pepper and onion in oil until tender. Remove from skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, melt butter over medium-high heat. Whisk the eggs, water, salt and pepper. Add egg mixture to skillet (mixture should set immediately at edges).
As eggs set, push cooked edges toward the center, letting uncooked portion flow underneath. When the eggs are set, spoon green pepper mixture and tomato on one side; fold other side over filling. Slide omelet onto a plate.
