Ingredient Notes

1 cup of fresh spinach adds nutrients and color; substitute with kale if preferred. 2 tablespoons of feta cheese crumbles give a tangy flavor; try goat cheese for a different taste. 1 pound of eggs provides a hearty base; use egg whites for a lighter option. 1/2 cup of diced tomatoes brings freshness; canned tomatoes can work in a pinch.

Step-by-Step Instructions

  1. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly grease it with oil.
  2. Pour half the egg mixture into the skillet, tilting to form an even layer. Cook until the edges begin to set, about 2-3 minutes.
  3. Carefully roll the omelette from one side to the other and slide it out onto a plate. Repeat with the remaining mixture.
  4. Slice the rolled omelettes and serve warm, garnished with extra spinach and tomatoes if desired.

Things I’ve Learned

To avoid the omelette sticking, ensure your pan is well-greased and hot before adding the eggs. If you have leftovers, store the rolled omelette in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days. Reheat gently in the microwave or on low heat in the skillet. You can also pre-chop the filling ingredients to make morning prep even faster.
