Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons unsweetened almond milk
- 1 tablespoon nutritional yeast
- 1 cup spinach
- 0.25 cup dairy-free cheese
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.125 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
In a medium bowl, crack the eggs and whisk together with the almond milk, nutritional yeast, salt, and pepper until well combined.
Wash the spinach thoroughly and pat it dry with a kitchen towel.
Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Add the spinach to the skillet and sauté for 2-3 minutes, or until wilted.
Pour the egg mixture over the spinach, tilting the pan to evenly distribute.
Sprinkle the dairy-free cheese evenly over the entire surface of the omelette.
Cook for 5-7 minutes, gently lifting the edges with a spatula to allow uncooked egg to flow underneath, until the eggs are set but still slightly soft.
Carefully fold the omelette in half and let it cook for another minute to melt the cheese inside.
Slide the omelette onto a plate, garnish with additional spinach if desired, and serve hot.
