Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 pieces large eggs
- 2 tablespoons heavy cream
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
- 1 handful spinach leaves
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon chopped chives
Instructions
Crack the eggs into a mixing bowl. Add the heavy cream, salt, and black pepper. Whisk together until the mixture is frothy.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the butter. Allow it to melt, swirling the pan to coat the bottom.
Pour the egg mixture into the skillet. Allow it to settle for about 30 seconds, then gently stir with a spatula, pushing the set edges toward the center.
As the eggs begin to set, place the shredded cheddar cheese and spinach leaves on one half of the omelet.
Continue cooking until the edges are set but the omelet is still slightly soft in the center, about 2-3 minutes.
Gently fold the omelet in half over the filling. Cook for another minute or until the cheese is fully melted.
Slide the omelet onto a plate and sprinkle with chopped chives. Serve immediately.
