Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces large eggs
- 2 tablespoons unsweetened almond milk (or any milk of choice)
- 1 handful baby spinach
- 4 pieces cherry tomatoes
- 2 tablespoons bell pepper (any color, diced)
- 1 tablespoon grated low-fat cheese (optional)
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, almond milk, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
Slice the cherry tomatoes in half and set them aside.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil.
Once the oil is warm, add the diced bell peppers and cook for 1-2 minutes until slightly softened.
Add the spinach and cook for another 30 seconds until it starts to wilt.
Pour the egg mixture into the skillet, ensuring it spreads evenly over the vegetables.
Place the cherry tomato halves cut-side up onto the egg mixture. Sprinkle with grated cheese if using.
Cover the skillet with a lid and reduce the heat to low. Cook for 3-4 minutes, or until the eggs are set and the cheese has melted.
Use a spatula to carefully fold the omelet in half, then slide it onto a plate.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Healthy Omelet on the Run!
