Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tbsp milk (optional, for fluffier eggs)
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/8 tsp black pepper
  • 1/2 cup fresh spinach, chopped
  • 1/4 cup feta cheese, crumbled
  • 1 tsp olive oil or butter
  • 1 tbsp onion, finely chopped (optional)
  • 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes (optional, for heat)

Instructions

  1. Whisk the Eggs:

    • In a small bowl, whisk together eggs, milk (if using), salt, and black pepper until smooth.
  2. Sauté the Spinach:

    • Heat olive oil or butter in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
    • Add onion (if using) and cook for 1 minute until softened.
    • Add spinach and sauté for 30 seconds to 1 minute, until wilted. Remove from pan and set aside.
  3. Cook the Omelet:

    • Pour the whisked eggs into the pan, tilting to spread evenly.
    • Cook for 2-3 minutes, gently lifting the edges with a spatula to let uncooked egg flow underneath.
  4. Add the Filling & Fold:

    • Sprinkle sautéed spinach and crumbled feta cheese over half of the omelet.
    • Carefully fold the omelet in half and cook for another 30 seconds to 1 minute until set.
  5. Serve & Enjoy:

    • Transfer to a plate and serve warm. Garnish with extra feta or red pepper flakes if desired.


Notes

  • For extra protein, add cooked chicken, turkey, or smoked salmon.
  • Use frozen spinach if fresh isn’t available—just thaw and drain well before adding.
  • Want a bigger omelet? Use 3 eggs instead of 2 for a heartier meal.
