Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- 1 medium bell pepper, chopped
- 0.5 medium red onion, finely sliced
- 1 cup baby spinach leaves
- 0.5 cup feta cheese, crumbled
- 0.5 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
- 1 tablespoon fresh dill, chopped
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Crack the eggs into a mixing bowl, add salt and pepper, and whisk until the yolks and whites are fully combined and the mixture is frothy.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a medium non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Add the chopped bell pepper and sliced red onion to the skillet and sauté for about 3-4 minutes or until the vegetables begin to soften.
Stir in the baby spinach leaves and cook for another 2 minutes until wilted. Remove the vegetables from the skillet and set aside.
Wipe the skillet clean with a paper towel and return it to the stove, adding the remaining tablespoon of olive oil.
Pour the egg mixture into the skillet, tilting the pan to spread it out evenly. Cook undisturbed for about 2-3 minutes or until the edges begin to set.
While the eggs are cooking, evenly distribute the sautéed vegetables, cherry tomatoes, and crumbled feta over one half of the omelette.
Once the omelette is mostly set but still slightly runny on top, carefully fold the uncovered half over the filling using a spatula.
Reduce the heat to low and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes or until the omelette is cooked through and the cheese begins to melt.
Slide the omelette onto a plate, sprinkle with fresh dill, and serve immediately.
