Servings: 1

Ingredients

Extra virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon
Black pepper
1/4 teaspoon, freshly ground
Salt
1/4 teaspoon
Cheddar cheese
1/2 cup, shredded
Spinach
1 cup, fresh and chopped
Eggs
3, large

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, beat the eggs with salt and freshly ground black pepper until well combined.
  2. Heat the extra virgin olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
  3. Add the chopped fresh spinach to the skillet and sauté until wilted. This should take about 2 minutes.
  4. Pour the beaten eggs over the spinach, ensuring it spreads evenly across the skillet. Let it cook undisturbed for about a minute until it begins to set around the edges.
  5. Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the eggs. Continue to cook until the cheese begins to melt.
  6. Using a spatula, carefully fold the omelette in half. Allow it to cook for another 2-3 minutes, ensuring the cheese is fully melted and the eggs are cooked to your liking.
  7. Gently slide the omelette onto a plate. Serve hot, garnished with additional cheddar cheese or fresh herbs if desired.
