Serves 2

Ingredients

Olive oil
1 tablespoon
Black pepper
to taste
Salt
to taste
Asiago cheese
1/2 cup, grated
Fresh spinach
2 cups, chopped
Eggs
4 large

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, crack the eggs and beat them with a pinch of salt and black pepper until well combined and slightly frothy.
  2. Heat olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat until shimmering.
  3. Add the chopped spinach to the skillet and sauté for about 2 minutes, or until wilted.
  4. Pour the beaten eggs evenly over the spinach in the skillet. Allow the eggs to set for about 1 minute without stirring.
  5. Sprinkle the grated Asiago cheese evenly over the top of the eggs.
  6. Using a spatula, gently fold the omelet in half and continue cooking for another minute, or until the cheese has melted and the eggs are cooked through.
  7. Carefully slide the omelet onto a plate and serve hot, optionally garnished with fresh herbs or a sprinkle of additional cheese.

Tips

  • 💡 For added flavor, consider mixing in some sautéed onions or fresh herbs like basil or parsley.
  • 💡 If you prefer a spicier kick, add a pinch of red pepper flakes or a dash of hot sauce.
  • 💡 This omelet can easily be customized by adding other vegetables such as bell peppers, mushrooms, or tomatoes.
