Directions

Preheat oven to 350F.

Add the bell pepper and olive oil, stir and sautee another 3-5 min, until the vegetables soften.

In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, cream, mozzarella, and season to taste with salt and pepper.

Pour the egg mixture into the skillet, give it a gentle stir and let it cook until the omelette begins to bubble, about 3-5 min.

Transfer the pan or skillet to the oven and bake 20-25 min, until the top is golden.
