3 eggs
3 TBSP water
1 cheese slice (torn in half)
salt
pepper

In a bowl add eggs and water--beat. Spray a 10" dinner plate with Pam, place it in the microwave and carefully pour the egg mixture on to the dinner plate. Microwave on high for 30 seconds. Wait 5 seconds. Microwave on high for 30 more seconds. Wait 5 seconds, then open microwave and place sliced cheese pieces over one side of the egg mixture. Use a spatula to fold one side of the egg mixture over the other (to form the omelette). Microwave on high for 20 seconds longer. Season with salt and pepper. Note: our microwave is 1300 watts so if your microwave in lower wattage, you will have to adjust the times.
