Suggestions include: 1/2 cup chopped cooked vegetables (onions, peppers, spinach, mushrooms), 1/2 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, Monterey Jack, or a blend), 1/4 cup cooked meats (bacon, sausage, ham, or leftover chicken), and any other desired additions (herbs, spices).
  4. Pour the egg mixture into the prepared baking dish. Evenly distribute the leftover ingredients over the top.
  5. Bake for 30-40 minutes, or until the omelet is set and lightly golden brown. Cooking time may vary depending on your oven and the amount of ingredients added.
