The Red Copper 5 Minute Chef makes the most amazing omelets and can be used to make many other foods. It is super easy to use and is perfect for meals for one person.
A couple of weeks ago I wanted an omelet. Now when I make omelets, I want them to be filled with veggies and look/taste like the ones you get at those breakfast places. So I grabbed the eggs from my fridge along with some cheese and veggies. At the time, I only had mushrooms, shredded carrots, and red pepper in my fridge. I really wanted spinach but I did not have any so these veggies had to work.
I chopped up all the veggies and whisked three eggs all while my taste buds were drooling with anticipation for a cheesy omelet. I warmed up the pan and proceeded to make my omelet. In went the eggs, then the veggies, and finally the cheese. All was going well with my cooking until it was time to fold the omelet.
This is when things took a turn for the worst and my omelet turned into scrambled eggs with veggies. I like to think that I am a good cook but my mess of eggs and veggies was not the cheesy omelet that I was expecting. I just could not get the eggs to cooperate and I may have put too many veggies in. I vowed never to make another omelet.
Keep reading to discover the perfect recipe for omelets that look and taste amazing.
So I gave the 5 Minute Chef a chance. I just had to as this device could also make pizza and desserts. My younger boys could maybe also do some more cooking beyond the microwave as they are not allowed to use the stove/oven yet.
The Red Copper 5-Minute Chef is easy to use and very compact. This amazing one-meal cooking device stores easily in your cabinet and takes up little space on the counter. The meals for one appliance is also so easy to clean. It is the perfect single-person cooking device for making recipes for meals for one person.
I discovered the omelet maker on Amazon.
Do not latch the pan!

Makes the best omelets for breakfast
The first thing that I made in the 5 Minute Chef was a salmon burger as we had no eggs in the house and it did an amazing job of cooking the fish. I loved that there was no messy grease splattering all over my stove as the fish was contained in the closed pan. My fish tasted so good and it was not dried out one bit.

Once I went to the store and bought eggs, I then used the cute red cooking device to make my omelet. I loved that I did not have to add any oil to the pan, that way I was saving my fat grams for my cheese. The best part was I could add the eggs, spinach (lots of it), and cheese all at the same time to the pan, instead of waiting when I cooked on my stovetop. I closed the lid of the 5 Minute Chef and waited two minutes. I then opened up the red pan and I had a perfectly cooked omelet! I was amazed that this pan could do that. I was in egg heaven!

Do not latch the pan!
The instructions tell you to latch the pan close but do not follow that. I learned the hard way when I put a bit too much spinach in my omelet and it exploded when I opened the pan. I had eggs all over the kitchen. So just place your ingredients in the pan and cook. There is no need to flip the pan over.
The 5 Minute Chef came with a recipe book that had easy recipes for pizza, cake, pancakes, and more. Since the pan is so easy to use, makes no mess, and is easy to clean, I knew that I had to teach my younger boys how to use it. That way they can eat other things besides PB and J and microwaved cheese sandwiches for fend-for-yourself dinner night. I admit things get busy here and we have way too many fend-for-yourself dinner nights. Hey, how else are my boys going to learn how to cook?
Great for pancakes
My ten-year-old was the most excited to try the 5 Minute Chef Pan as he recognized the lady on the box from a TV commercial. He helped me make pancakes in it and it was so easy. His younger brother enjoyed having pancakes for dinner that night. Once the pan cooled down, I showed my son how to wipe the pan down with a dishcloth. Then I placed the red pan in my pantry as I knew it would get a lot of use. I think this red pan will be the start of my boys learning how to cook more and I might just put them in charge of making dinner. A recipe book comes with the pan for the instructions to cook omelets, pancakes, pizza, meat, and more.

Breakfast for dinner is one of our favorite things. This will make it so simple to do that on busy school nights. Yours turned out great!
This is so interesting! I like that it's not big. Because I made a promise to myself not to clutter my kitchen with big electric appliances.
WOW! this is so gooood! I think I 'll have it!
This is such a cool little appliance for the kitchen. This would be great for my kids to use.
I love this little appliance. You made a great omelette and it delicious.
This looks like a fun appliance to have! And looks like it is perfect for omlets!
I have never heard of the Red Copper 5 Minute Chef before. It sounds like an awesome cooking device to have for sure. I would love to have one of these for Christmas. Thanks for sharing the awesome review.
Wow i find that this cooker so cool and make omelet more easier. Thanks for another delicious recipe :)
Whoa!! This red copper 5 minute chef is truly amazing. It will be the best device that will help me for sure for preparing our breakfast dish. I am looking forward to check this one.
That looks delicious and simple. Perfect for a brunch with friends.
That looks like so much fun to make with the kids. I would love to check this out for our family.
Lol at first I thought it was a toy. Your food turned out perfect.
I love this! Your food looks perfectly delicious. I need this.
whats is the price
Hi to all, how is everything, I think every one is getting more from this website, and your
views are pleasant designed for new viewers.
My dad got one of these and for what ever reason, didn't like it and gave it to me. I have young kids like your boys and they love to be able to cook stuff "all by themselves!" I keep stuff like shredded cheese and ham portioned out in my fridge for fast omelets and to help with my diet. This works great to make an omelet and then put that into a tortilla shell and make a breakfast burrito. I then unplug it and put the burrito in it to let the wrap get warmed from the dissipating heat. I see this going to college or what ever when my kiddo's get there. I've also made Oatmeal in it. Takes a little more clean up, but works. Thinking about lining it with foil to make the oatmeal easier to clean up.
Except the warnings say, "Do NOT latch it." It will build up steam pressure and possibly explode or burn you. Also, the website says you do not need to flip it.
iv`e seen that video, the idiots that make them need to read the instructions first.
Thanks for this tip as I learned the hard way to not latch it after I had eggs explode in my kitchen.
My mom got me one of these. So far, all I've cooked are egg dishes except for that one time where I reheated cooked burgers. The only work that was needed was the food prep. Been wondering what more this thing can do.
I received one from a friend but they could find the recipe book is there any way to get one is sure would be a big help
I got one of these recently. My instructions say to NOT latch the lid. In fact, it says to NOT latch the lid on ALL recipes in the booklet. I think the latch is only there for use in storage. I have also liked making the ‘corn dogs’. However, instead of using a whole little box of jiffy corn bread mix(which says to add water and egg), I bought a corn bread mix that is labeled to only add water. I put about 4-5 tablespoons of the dry mix in a small bowl and add only enough water to get it past the thick paste stage - it will be slightly runny. I slice up a non-cured (nitrite & nitrate free) hot dog and put the hot dog slices into the pre-heated pan, then pour/spoon the cornbread batter over the top and close the lid - do NOT latch. I think I cook it for about 5 min. I get enough coating around the hot dog pieces to resemble what you get on a corn dog. I didn’t want it to be like the instruction book picture - it looks like thick cornbread with hot dog pieces scattered throughout. Of course, great omelettes!
We take this on vacation with us. As it gets costly to eat out a lot, this is a wonderful device to make a meal in the room that is delicious. For the price of the few ingredients, we save enough for a fancy meal out.
Sounds like a great recipe. Kind of like a corn dog
now I want this for Christmas! how convenient and fast is that! I also like that it looks portable and easy to store!
Your omelettes look restaurant quality! That must be a pretty awesome tool. Christmas lists I think!
I have seen ads for this on the TV and have always wondered how well it worked - thanks for sharing your experiences and review!
I need this! Sometimes my omelettes are perfect and sometimes they fall apart like scrambled eggs. I can't stand when that happens
The 5 minute chef seems like a cool gadget to have in your kitchen for omelettes. This might work for me when I have guests that enjoy eggs.
I've never heard of this before but it looks like it would make things easier! I will have to check it out.
This is so cool! I love how easy to make omelettess and pancakes in this one.
I have the same issue when I try to make omelettes, they turn into scrambled eggs as soon as I try to flip them. Lately I've been finishing them in the oven, so I don't have to flip. This gadget can definitely help in making those perfect omelettes.
This oven looks cool. Though I never have issues while making omelettes but this looks easier.
What a game changer! Anything that makes cooking simpler with less cleanup is always needed
I feel your pain! I can never get everything I want in my omelet without it breaking. This contraption is pure genius!
I really love cooking with easy steps. And this is so perfect for me! I will prepare these! Yummy!!
Nice
Cooking made easy with easy. I'd love to have this, it's perfect especially on busy days.
I learned the hard way on latching the cooker. I will never use the latch again on this.
It is EXACTLY like a corn dog - a great snack! I bought the nitrate-free beef hot dogs, thinking they were at least a little healthier! I keep the opened package of cornbread mix in a sealed container - 1 package of mix makes many ‘corn dogs’.
Awesome food. Looking Delicious. Thank you so much for share your article.
Amazing food makeover, Really awesome post. Thanks for share your article.
Hi, just read ur message. There is a Red Copper 5 minute Chef recipe page on Facebook, I am a member its free and everyone puts recipes on that they've done its great.
I just bought one of these on clearance for $8.99. I am looking forward to all the different lava cake recipes combinations I can come up with.
I do crumbed chicken pieces in it and they always juicy.
I've had my "little red" for a while now. It is also great for potatoes. Just clean them well, cube them and fill up the little red adding spices. I check and flip them a few times. Did boneless chicken thighs the other day..... Came out nice and tender. A very handy little device!

Even till the 70s they were widely used to make sandwiches. egg sandwich maker
That looks like such a great gadget. I would definitely use this. I've never seen one of these before.
This is the most awesome gadget I've ever seen! I can see making all kinds of stuff in that. The shape is perfect for omelets like you talked about, but I'm thinking some kind of calzone or maybe a sandwich.
That looks like an awesome product. This is exactly what I could use too. My youngest daughter really loves eggs, so this would be great for her. I could easily make omelets with this too.
I have got to get one of these! Copper Chef has been on my wish list for years now.
This sounds so interesting! It's easy to use. Perfect for our family!
This is the first time I've heard of this appliance. Looks cool to use!
I would love to have that appliance that will really helps me to make an easy breakfast meal for my family.

I've never heard of this gadget! But it sounds like the perfect kitchen gadget!
These are some great recipes! I love how easy it looks to use this and make pancakes and omlettes! YUM!
This gadget looks amazing! I might need to invest in one of these.
My dad bought one for all of us about 10 or 12 years ago. Still using it. Checked dad's out just today. He needs a new one. Looks like he's used it every day. Bugga! They don't make them anymore.
Glad to hear. Mine is now 5 years old and still works!
I bought the product when it first came out and paid $5 for it at Walmart. I live alone and cook for 1. I cook many meals and love it.
I absolutely love my Red Copper 5 Minute Chef! It’s been a game changer for quick, single-serving meals. This post has given me so many great ideas for simple, delicious dishes to try. The cheesy scrambled eggs sound like the perfect breakfast to start my day!
Don’t lock the latch when cooking omelettes. I had hot egg explode across the kitchen. Only just missed me 😳
