Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 large eggs
- 1 tablespoon heavy cream
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 cup spinach
- 4 pieces cherry tomatoes
- 1 ounce cheddar cheese, shredded
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Crack the eggs into a medium-sized bowl, add the heavy cream, salt, and black pepper, and whisk thoroughly until the egg mixture is well combined and slightly frothy.
Wash and halve the cherry tomatoes. Set them aside for later use.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and melt the butter until it sizzles but does not brown.
Add the spinach to the skillet and sauté for about 1 minute, stirring occasionally, until it wilts. Remove the spinach and set it aside.
Turn the heat to medium-low and pour the egg mixture into the skillet, swirling gently to evenly coat the bottom. Let it cook undisturbed for 1-2 minutes, or until the edges begin to set.
Sprinkle the sautéed spinach, halved cherry tomatoes, and shredded cheddar cheese evenly over one half of the omelette.
Using a spatula, carefully fold the other half of the omelette over the filling. Let it cook for another 1-2 minutes until the eggs are fully set and the cheese is melted.
Slide the omelette onto a plate and serve immediately. Optionally, garnish with additional spinach or a sprinkle of cheese.
