Ingredients

  • Eggs - 4 large
  • Milk - 2 tablespoons
  • Bell pepper (diced) - 1/4 cup
  • Onion (diced) - 1/4 cup
  • Spinach (chopped) - 1/2 cup
  • Tomato (diced) - 1/4 cup
  • Olive oil - 1 tablespoon
  • Salt - 1/2 teaspoon
  • Black pepper - 1/4 teaspoon
  • Cheddar cheese (shredded) - 1/4 cup (optional)

Steps

  1. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
  2. Heat olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
  3. Add the diced onion and bell pepper to the skillet and sauté for 2-3 minutes until softened.
  4. Stir in the chopped spinach and diced tomato, cooking for another 1-2 minutes until the spinach wilts.
  5. Pour the egg mixture over the sautéed vegetables, tilting the skillet to ensure even distribution.
  6. Cook for 3-4 minutes until the edges start to set, gently lifting the edges with a spatula to allow uncooked eggs to flow underneath.
  7. If using, sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over half of the omelette.
  8. Once the omelette is mostly set but still slightly runny on top, carefully fold it in half using a spatula.
  9. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until fully cooked through and the cheese is melted.
  10. Slide the omelette onto a plate, cut in half, and serve hot.
