Directions

1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a 10x15 or 11x14 baking dish or rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper, leaving enough to hang over the sides as handles. Grease the paper and sides of your baking dish.

2. Mix the cream cheese until smooth, then add the milk and Dijon mustard and whisk until well combined. Add the eggs and salt and whisk until smooth and light.

3. Transfer the egg mixture to your prepared baking dish and bake at 375°F (190°C) for 30–35 minutes. The eggs should be puffy and set. Remove from the oven and lift from the pan onto a working surface.

4. Immediately add the first 1 cup portion of shredded cheddar cheese on top of the baked eggs. Add the diced ham, then top it with the second 1 cup portion of shredded cheese.

5. Roll the egg and fillings starting on one end and working toward the opposite end, peeling back the parchment paper as you go. Place the rolled omelet onto the center of the peeled parchment paper and top with the remaining ¼ cup portion of shredded cheese.

6. Return the omelet roll to your oven and melt the cheese, about 4–5 minutes. Once done, sprinkle with chopped fresh chives — and serve immediately.
