Cook the Omelet:

Prepare the Filling:

Assemble and Serve:
- Once the omelet is cooked, carefully transfer it to a warmed plate.
- Spread the filling ingredients evenly over one half of the omelet.
- Fold the other half of the omelet over the filling to create a half-moon shape.
- Alternatively, you can place the filling on half of the omelet in the pan, fold the other half over, and then slide it onto a warmed plate.
