Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 large eggs
- 1 cup baby spinach
- 0.5 cup button mushrooms
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 0.25 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- 0.25 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.125 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper until well combined. Set aside.
Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced mushrooms and cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are browned and tender.
Add the baby spinach to the skillet with the mushrooms and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until the spinach is wilted. Remove the mixture from the skillet and set aside.
Reduce the heat to medium-low and add the unsalted butter to the skillet. Once melted, pour in the egg mixture, tilting the pan to ensure the eggs are evenly distributed.
Let the eggs cook undisturbed for 1-2 minutes or until the edges start to set.
Sprinkle the sautéed mushrooms, spinach, and shredded cheddar cheese evenly over one half of the omelet.
Using a spatula, carefully fold the other half of the omelet over the filling. Cook for another 1-2 minutes until the cheese is melted and the eggs are fully set.
Slide the omelet onto a plate and serve warm. Enjoy your delicious Mushroom Spinach Omelet!
