Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons unsweetened almond milk
- 1 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 cup baby spinach
- 6 pieces cherry tomatoes
- 1 small (diced) red bell pepper
- 1 small (diced) onion
- 1 cup (sliced) mushrooms
- 2 tablespoons (crumbled) low-fat feta cheese
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon (chopped) fresh parsley
Instructions
Crack the eggs into a medium-sized bowl. Add the almond milk, salt, and black pepper, and whisk together until well combined. Set aside.
Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Add the diced onion and bell pepper to the skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes until softened.
Stir in the sliced mushrooms and cook for an additional 2 minutes until tender and any liquid released evaporates.
Add the cherry tomatoes and baby spinach to the skillet. Cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the spinach wilts.
Reduce the heat to low and pour the egg mixture evenly over the sautéed vegetables in the skillet.
Sprinkle the crumbled feta cheese across the top.
Cover the skillet with a lid and cook for 3-4 minutes, or until the eggs are set and firm but not dry. Do not stir.
Carefully slide the omelette onto a plate or fold it in half to serve.
Garnish with fresh parsley before serving. Enjoy warm.
