  • Total Time: 15 minutes
  • Yield: 1 serving 1x
  • Diet: Vegetarian

Description

A quick and easy spinach and cheese omelette bursting with flavors, perfect for a cozy breakfast.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 3 cloves garlic
  • 1/2 onion
  • 2 cups fresh spinach
  • 3 cage-free organic eggs
  • 1 slice havarti cheese
  • 1 tomato
  • pinch sea salt
  • pinch black pepper

Instructions

  1. Start by finely mincing the 3 cloves of garlic.
  2. Finely dice 1/2 of an onion.
  3. Reserve 2 cups of fresh spinach.
  4. Crack 3 cage-free organic eggs into a bowl, season with a pinch of sea salt and black pepper. Whisk them until well combined.
  5. Heat a nonstick frying pan over medium heat, and add in 2 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil.
  6. After about 2 minutes, toss in the diced onions and minced garlic. Stir them together with the olive oil.
  7. After 3 minutes, add the reserved spinach to the pan and keep mixing.
  8. Once the spinach has wilted (around 2 minutes), season everything with a sprinkle of sea salt and freshly cracked black pepper. Give it another quick stir.
  9. Pour in the egg mixture and let it cook for about 1 minute. Use a spatula to run along the outer edges of the omelette to ensure it doesn’t stick.
  10. After 2 minutes, add a slice of havarti cheese right in the middle, then carefully fold the omelette over.
  11. Let it cook for another 30 seconds before flipping it gently. Cook for another 30 seconds to finish.
  12. Transfer the omelette to a serving plate, and serve it next to some sliced tomatoes. Enjoy!

For best results, use fresh ingredients and avoid overcooking the eggs.
