Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large egg whites
- 1 large whole egg
- 1 cup fresh spinach
- 6 cherry tomatoes
- 0.25 cup red onion
- 2 tablespoons feta cheese
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon dried oregano
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Start by preparing your vegetables. Rinse the fresh spinach and cherry tomatoes. Slice the cherry tomatoes in half and finely dice the red onion.
In a medium-sized non-stick skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced red onion and sauté for 2-3 minutes until they become translucent.
Add the fresh spinach to the skillet and cook for another 1-2 minutes until wilted, stirring frequently.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the egg whites, whole egg, salt, black pepper, and oregano until fluffy and well combined.
Pour the egg mixture into the skillet over the spinach and onion, ensuring an even layer. Cook over medium heat for about 3-4 minutes or until the edges begin to set.
Evenly distribute the halved cherry tomatoes and crumbled feta cheese over one half of the omelette.
Using a spatula, carefully fold the unadorned half of the omelette over the filled half and press gently to seal.
Continue to cook the omelette for another 2-3 minutes, or until the eggs are completely set and the feta cheese is slightly melted.
Slide the omelette onto a plate, slice it in half, and serve immediately. Enjoy your light and flavorful low-fat Greek omelette!
