Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil
- 0.25 cup (diced) red bell pepper
- 0.5 cup baby spinach
- 1 stalk (sliced) green onion
- 0.125 teaspoon salt
- 0.125 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Crack the eggs into a small bowl. Add salt and black pepper, then beat them with a fork until well blended.
Heat a nonstick or cast-iron skillet over medium heat and add the coconut oil.
Once the oil is hot, add the diced red bell pepper. Sauté for 2 minutes or until slightly softened.
Add the baby spinach and sliced green onion to the skillet. Cook for another 1-2 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the spinach is wilted.
Spread the sautéed vegetables evenly across the bottom of the skillet and reduce the heat to low.
Pour the beaten eggs evenly over the vegetables. Let the omelette cook undisturbed for 2-3 minutes, or until the edges are set and the center is slightly runny.
Using a spatula, carefully fold the omelette in half. Continue cooking for an additional 1-2 minutes, or until the center is fully set to your liking.
Slide the omelette onto a plate, serve hot, and enjoy!
