If you’re looking for creative spins on the classic breakfast dish, I have you covered. Let’s get scrambling.

1. Classic Denver Omelette

Start your weekend with a bang with the classic Denver omelette.

Pillowy scrambled eggs are stuffed with smoked ham, melted cheddar cheese, sweet bell peppers, and onions.

Ahh… this is what breakfast dreams are made of! It tastes just like pizza but in omelette form, and it is awesome.

The dish is primarily savory, but you’ll also get some sweet crunch from the bell peppers. 

2. Diner-Style Ham and Cheese Omelette

Nothing beats the comfort that a classic ham and cheese omelette gives. 

The ham and cheese oozing inside of the omelette is just pure satisfaction. The added herbs in the eggs take it to the next level.

This is more than just comfort food. It’s a giant hug, a shoulder to cry on, and your most avid cheerleader. That’s how much it can uplift your spirits.

3. Spanish Omelette

Why settle for a regular omelette when you can give it a Spanish twist?

This version, called tortilla, includes chopped brown onions and diced potatoes. Muy bien, indeed.

It’s like scrambled eggs meeting hash browns, and the resulting mash-up is beautiful.

The potatoes give the omelette such a lovely, fluffy, and chewy texture. And it makes the dish extra-hearty, too. What more can you ask for?

4. Spinach Feta Omelette

If you want a healthy approach to omelettes, this recipe has your name on it.

Spinach and feta join forces to make basic scrambled eggs egg-ceptionally delicious. It makes omelettes super healthy without sacrificing flavor.

Of course, you’re free to add whatever veggies you have on hand, but this omelette is already spectacular with just the feta and spinach. 

Chives are optional, but they’re highly recommended.

5. Greek Omelette

How about a Mediterranean twist? This Greek omelette is as bright and refreshing as can be with tomatoes, feta, and black olives.

You’ll love the vibrant colors, but you’ll enjoy the flavors and textures even more. 

From the sweet tomatoes to the creamy feta to the salty olives, this omelette houses different flavors, but somehow, they all work together to create the perfect bite.

6. Mushroom and Sun-Dried Tomato Omelette

Earthy mushrooms and sweet and chewy sun-dried tomatoes are tucked inside fluffy scrambled eggs.

As a fan of the sweet and salty flavor profile, this omelette is definitely one of my favorite.

Besides the flavor combination, I also can’t get enough of the textures! I love how the filling gives the omelette different textural dimensions.

7. Easy Tomato Omelette

This omelette is stuffed with sweet cherry tomatoes, stringy mozzarella, and fresh basil. 

If the roster of ingredients sounds familiar, that’s because it’s the same ones needed to make a pizza Margherita.

That said, you already know that the flavors work well together.

Imagine this dish to be just like a Margherita, only, instead of being topped on a crust, they’re all nestled inside fluffy scrambled eggs.

8. Loaded Grilled Hash Brown Omelette

Can’t decide between hash browns and scrambled eggs?

Just cook them together in one skillet, and boom, you’ll have a phenomenal morning meal.

While the two are the primary components of this dish, it’s more than just shredded potatoes and eggs. 

The egg and spud mixture serves as a crispy outer crust that houses a variety of fillings, such as mushrooms, peppers, ham, cheese, and onions.

In short, expect nothing but mouthwatering greatness.

9. World’s Best Vegetarian Omelette

Just because you’re a vegetarian doesn’t mean you can’t join in on the omelette fun! Hello vegetarian readers, this one’s for you.

This omelette (which is actually more like a frittata, but who cares) is bursting with red peppers, spinach, cherry tomatoes, and cheddar cheese. 

Because there’s no egg-flipping and folding involved, it couldn’t be any easier to make. Just throw all the ingredients into the skillet and you’re all set.

10. Chili, Cheese, and Bacon Omelette

Bacon is the solution to all of life’s woes. One bit of this bacon omelette will prove my point.

It’s too bad that bacon is high in cholesterol and calories, but when it comes to cheering you up, it won’t disappoint.

That’s why this omelette is one of my go-to breakfast dishes when I’m not feeling 100%. 

Aside from the bacon, it’s also packed with melted cheese and chili, just to give it a mild kick.

11. Simple Cheese Omelette

This cheese omelette might be simple, but it sure hits the spot.

Melty cheddar (or mozzarella) is the main feature of this omelette, but its other components also deserve the spotlight.

Onions and bell peppers give it some sweetness and crunch, while chili powder, turmeric, and garam masala give it such bold, wonderful flavors.

All together, they make the omelette simply irresistible.

12. Brie and Bacon Omelette

Bacon and cheese are two of my favorite things in the world. Put them together, and I’ll just go insane. 

This is exactly what this recipe does. Brie and bacon together in one? This is the omelette of my dreams! 

The melted, ooey-gooey cheese plus the sweet, salty, smoky, and crunchy bacon make this omelette earth-shatteringly delicious.

I refuse to eat just one serving.

Just dump the ingredients in a dish and let the oven take care of the rest.

15. Kale and Cheese Omelette

If you’re looking to add roughage to your meal, this kale and cheese omelette is for you.

Kale is a great source of vitamins and nutrients, but let’s be honest, no one wants to eat kale on its own!

The best way to add it to your diet is to incorporate it into an omelette.

Mixed with ooey-gooey cheese, even the kids won’t be able to notice the leaves.

16. Cheesy Mushroom and Spinach Omelette

It’s so good it tastes as if it came straight out of a 5-star restaurant! No one has to know it takes only 13 minutes to make.

17. Prosciutto, Parmesan, and Rosemary Omelette

While I’m a sucker for bacon, I also won’t say no to a delicious prosciutto.

This salty and smoky cold cut was put on this earth to make it a better place.

Think of this dish as a classy spin on the classic ham and cheese omelette. Instead of ham, you’ll use prosciutto, and instead of cheddar, you’ll use Parmigiano-Reggiano.

This upgrade is the perfect dish to serve if you’re looking to impress.

18. Shrimp Omelette

This is a Chinese-inspired recipe that flavors the eggs with oyster sauce, fish sauce, sesame oil, and Shaoxing cooking wine. 

Besides the shrimp, the omelette is also filled with red onion slices and scallions. 

All together, they create the most wonderful flavor explosion! What an awesome way to start the day.

Top it off with a refreshing salsa and you’re golden.

21. Loaded Mediterranean Omelette

Here’s another Mediterranean omelette that’ll surely delight your palate.
