Prepare the vegetables: Dice the red bell pepper and zucchini into small pieces. Slice the cherry tomatoes in half and chop the green onions and parsley finely.
Crack the eggs into a bowl, add the salt and black pepper, and whisk until well combined.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
Add the diced bell pepper and zucchini to the pan and sautΓ© for 3-4 minutes until they slightly soften.
Add the cherry tomatoes and green onions to the pan, cooking for another 2-3 minutes. Sprinkle in the dried oregano and stir to combine.
Pour the whisked eggs evenly over the vegetables in the pan. Reduce the heat to low and cook for about 5 minutes, or until the eggs are almost set.
Crumble the feta cheese over the omelet and cover the skillet with a lid. Cook for another 2-3 minutes until the cheese begins to soften and the eggs are fully cooked.
Sprinkle the chopped parsley over the top, then carefully slide the omelet onto a plate or fold it in half for serving.
Serve warm and enjoy your flavorful Omeleta Horiatiki, optionally with a slice of crusty bread on the side.
