Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 large eggs
- 0.5 cup whole milk
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 medium, diced red bell pepper
- 1 small, diced zucchini
- 2 cups baby spinach
- 2 tablespoons, chopped fresh parsley
- 2 tablespoons, chopped fresh chives
- 1 cup, shredded cheddar cheese
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 9x9-inch baking dish or a similarly sized oven-safe dish.
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper until fully combined and slightly frothy. Set aside.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the diced red bell pepper and zucchini, and sauté for 3-4 minutes until they begin to soften.
Stir in the baby spinach and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until wilted. Remove the skillet from heat and let the vegetables cool slightly.
Gently fold the cooled vegetables into the egg mixture, along with the chopped parsley, chives, and shredded cheddar cheese.
Pour the egg and vegetable mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the omelette is puffed and the center is set. A toothpick inserted in the middle should come out clean.
Remove the omelette from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes before slicing into squares or wedges.
Serve warm, garnished with extra parsley or chives if desired.
