Spinach Omelette

I love eggs. Boyfriend does not. Yay ME!!!









Yields 1 large omelette
hello kitty kitchen essentials
  • 2 cups raw spinach, packed
  • 1/4-1/3 cup grated colby jack cheese (or any cheese or your choosing)
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1/8 tsp salt
  • 1/8 tsp pepper
  • 1/8 tsp paprika
  • splash of skim milk (approx 2 tbsp)
  • 1 tsp olive oil

Measure out 2 cups of fresh (washed & dried) spinach, packed, then place in a medium non-stick pan over medium-high heat with a teaspoon of water. Cover with a lid. Once the spinach has wilted, place in colander to drain any excess liquid. Squeeze if necessary. 

Grate as much cheese as you like (I tend to use about 1/3 cup), and feel free to use whatever kind of cheese you have on hand! 

Crack eggs into a bowl with salt, pepper, paprika and skim milk. Beat thoroughly using a fork or whisk. 

Add 1 tsp olive oil to the same non-stick pan and heat to medium-high. Pour egg mixture into pan and reduce heat to medium.

Let sit for one minute before sprinkling cheese over the eggs. Leave for another minute, then add wilted spinach over the cheese. Leave for one more minute before folding the omelette over. Serve immediately if you prefer runny - Let sit until cooked through if you don't!
