Ham and Cheese Omelet Roll

I really love omelets.  This big, puffy baked omelet serves 5-6 and is so easy to make. What a great way to start (or end) the day.

Ingredients:

5 eggs, separated
½ cup milk
¼ cup flour
1 teaspoon salt
Fresh cracked black pepper to taste

¼ cup mayonnaise

1 Tablespoon grated horseradish
1 cup ham, chopped
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
¼ cup chopped green onion

Chives for garnish

Directions:

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. In a large bowl, whisk the egg yolks, milk, flour, salt and pepper together. In a separate and very clean bowl, whip the egg whites to soft peaks. Gently fold the egg whites into the egg yolk mixture. Scoop the egg mixture onto your prepared sheet and smooth the top. Bake for 15 minutes or until set.

In a small bowl, mix together the mayo, horseradish, ham, cheese, and green onion. Flip the omelet roll onto a clean towel and remove the parchment paper. Spread the ham and cheese mixture over the top, leaving about 1 inch on all sides. Starting from the long side, gently roll up. Line the baking sheet with a fresh piece of parchment paper. Use the ends of the towel to lift and transfer the roll back onto the baking sheet, rolling it until the seam side is down. Return the roll to the oven for 8 or so minutes so the filling can get warm.

Cut into slices for serving. Garnish with a few chopped chives.
