Place a 9 or 10-inch nonstick skillet on medium-low heat. Once the skillet is warm, lightly coat it with cooking spray, then pour in the egg mixture and allow it to sit undisturbed to begin cooking. With a heat-safe silicone or rubber spatula, gently lift the cooked edges of the eggs away from the pan, enabling the uncooked portions to flow to the edges and cook through.

When the eggs are mostly firm, sprinkle your cheese down the center of the omelet. Allow it to melt for a few moments, then carefully fold the edges of the omelet over the cheese from both sides toward the center. Serve immediately and savor your creation!
