Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons unsweetened almond milk
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives
- 0.5 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
- 0.5 cup baby spinach
Instructions
In a medium bowl, crack the eggs and add the unsweetened almond milk, salt, and black pepper. Whisk together until the mixture is well blended and slightly frothy.
Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Once the skillet is hot, pour in the egg mixture and let it cook undisturbed for about 30 seconds or until the edges start to set.
Gently swirl the pan occasionally and use a spatula to lift the edges of the omelet, allowing the uncooked eggs to flow underneath and cook.
After about 2 minutes, when the omelet is nearly set but still slightly runny on top, sprinkle the chopped fresh chives, halved cherry tomatoes, and baby spinach onto one half of the omelet.
Let the omelet cook for another minute, allowing the spinach to wilt slightly and the eggs to fully set.
Fold the empty half of the omelet over the filled side using a spatula, creating a half-moon shape.
Slide the omelet onto a plate and serve immediately. Enjoy your nutritious, dairy-free classic omelet!
