Start by cooking 4 slices of bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crispy, about 5-7 minutes.

Once crispy, remove the bacon and place it on paper towels to drain, leaving the bacon fat in the skillet.

Add 1/4 cup of diced onion and 1/4 cup of diced bell pepper to the skillet and sauté for about 3-4 minutes until softened.

In a bowl, whisk together 4 eggs, 2 tablespoons of milk, a pinch of salt, and black pepper until well combined.

Pour the egg mixture into the skillet over the sautéed vegetables.

Cook the omelette undisturbed until the edges begin to set, which should take about 2-3 minutes.

Sprinkle the cooked bacon and 1/4 cup of shredded cheese over one half of the omelette.

Fold the other half of the omelette over the filling and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until the cheese melts.

Slide the omelette onto a plate and serve hot.
