Ingredients:

Serving

2 tbsp butter
4 eggs
1/2 cup egg white
1 -2 tbsp chopped chives
salt
pepper
1 cup grated cheese (i used monterey jack but a combination of cheeses or your favorite cheese will work well)

Directions:

Whisk together the eggs, egg whites, chives, salt and pepper (I used a lot of pepper) in a bowl.
In a large skillet melt butter over medium heat.
Add egg mixture to pan, cooking for a few minutes until almost set, lifting sides so egg mixture can run under.
Grate (or sprinkle) cheese over top of eggs (I grated it right over the eggs) and cook a few more minutes until cheese melts.
Fold 1/3 of the omelet over the center and then the other side over the center.
Turn omelet onto plate and cut in half or thirds.
