The Greek Omelette is a flavorful and nutritious breakfast dish that combines fresh vegetables and feta cheese, embodying the essence of Mediterranean cuisine. It's a perfect way to start your day with a boost of energy and essential nutrients.

Ingredients

• Eggs - 4 large
• Feta cheese - 100 grams, crumbled
• Spinach - 50 grams, fresh
• Tomato - 1 medium, diced
• Red onion - 1 small, finely chopped
• Olive oil - 2 tablespoons
• Salt - 1/4 teaspoon
• Black pepper - 1/4 teaspoon
• Oregano - 1/2 teaspoon, dried

Steps

1. In a medium bowl, whisk the eggs together with salt, black pepper, and oregano until well combined.
2. Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
3. Add the chopped red onion to the skillet and sauté for 2-3 minutes until translucent.
4. Stir in the fresh spinach and diced tomato, cooking for another 2 minutes until the spinach wilts.
5. Pour the egg mixture into the skillet, ensuring it evenly covers the vegetables.
6. Sprinkle the crumbled feta cheese on top of the eggs.
7. Cook for 4-5 minutes on medium heat, gently lifting the edges of the omelette to allow uncooked egg to flow underneath.
