Vegetable and Cheese Omelette
Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- 1/4 cup diced bell peppers
- 1/4 cup diced onions
- 1/4 cup sliced mushrooms
- 1/4 cup chopped spinach
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- In a bowl, beat 4 large eggs until well combined. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
- Add the diced bell peppers, onions, and mushrooms to the skillet. Sauté for 2-3 minutes until the vegetables are slightly softened.
- Add the chopped spinach to the skillet and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until wilted.
- Remove the vegetables from the skillet and set aside.
- In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil and swirl to coat the bottom.
- Pour the beaten eggs into the skillet, tilting the pan to ensure the eggs cover the entire surface.
- Cook the eggs for 2-3 minutes, lifting the edges with a spatula to let the uncooked eggs flow underneath.
- Once the omelette is mostly set, sprinkle the sautéed vegetables and shredded cheddar cheese over one half of the omelette.
- Carefully fold the other half of the omelette over the filling using a spatula.
- Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until the cheese is melted and the omelette is cooked through.
- Slide the omelette onto a plate, cut in half, and serve hot.
