Ingredients
Scale
- 3 large eggs
- 1 tablespoon water
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- 1 cup fresh spinach
- 1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese
- Salt to taste
- Black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Whisk the eggs and water together in a small bowl until combined. Season lightly with salt and pepper.
- Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
- Add the spinach to the skillet and cook until wilted, about 1 to 2 minutes.
- Pour the egg mixture over the spinach. Let the edges set for about 1 minute.
- Sprinkle the crumbled feta cheese evenly over the top of the eggs.
- As the eggs cook, gently lift the edges with a spatula, tilting the pan so uncooked egg flows underneath.
- Cook until the eggs are mostly set but the top is still slightly moist. Fold the omelette in half.
- Slide the healthy omelette onto a plate and serve immediately.
Notes
- For a richer flavor, use 1/2 teaspoon of dried oregano mixed with the eggs.
- This recipe works well as a low carb breakfast option.
