Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 0.25 cup bell pepper (any color), diced
- 0.25 cup onion, diced
- 0.25 cup spinach, chopped
- 0.25 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
- 1 tablespoon olive oil or butter
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.125 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
In a medium bowl, crack the eggs and add the milk, salt, and black pepper. Whisk together until fully blended and slightly frothy.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil or butter, swirling to coat the pan evenly.
Once the oil or butter is heated, add the diced bell pepper and onion. Sauté for 2–3 minutes until they start to soften.
Add the chopped spinach to the pan and cook for an additional minute until it wilts slightly. Remove the vegetables from the skillet and set aside.
Reduce the heat to low-medium. Pour the whisked eggs into the skillet, tilting the pan to spread them evenly. Let the eggs cook undisturbed for 1–2 minutes or until the edges begin to set.
Evenly distribute the cooked vegetables over one half of the omelette. Sprinkle the shredded cheese on top of the vegetables.
Using a spatula, gently fold the other half of the omelette over the filling. Continue to cook for another 1–2 minutes until the cheese melts and the omelette is fully set.
Slide the omelette onto a plate and serve immediately. Enjoy your Veggie Cheese Omelette!
