Omelette Ingredients

  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 cup fresh spinach, chopped
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or your choice)
  • 1 tbsp butter or olive oil
  • Salt, to taste
  • Black pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Prepare the eggs: In a bowl, whisk the 3 large eggs thoroughly. Add salt and black pepper to taste and whisk again until well combined.
  2. Heat the skillet: Place a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of butter or olive oil, allowing it to melt and coat the surface evenly.
  3. Cook the eggs: Pour the beaten eggs into the hot skillet and let them cook undisturbed for about 1-2 minutes until the edges start to set.
  4. Add spinach and cheese: Sprinkle the chopped fresh spinach evenly over the eggs, then add the shredded cheese on top.
  5. Fold and finish cooking: Carefully fold the omelette in half using a spatula and cook for another 1-2 minutes, or until the eggs are fully set and the cheese is melted.
  6. Serve: Slide the omelette onto a plate and enjoy while hot, optionally garnishing with extra pepper or herbs.

Notes

  • Use a non-stick skillet for easier flipping and cooking.
  • You can substitute spinach with kale or other leafy greens.
  • Try different cheeses like feta or goat cheese for variation.
  • Serve with whole-grain toast or fresh fruit for a balanced meal.
  • For a fluffier omelette, add a splash of milk to the eggs before whisking.
