Ingredients
Scale
- 4 large eggs
- 1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese
- 1 cup fresh spinach, chopped
- 1/4 cup Kalamata olives, sliced
- 1/4 cup diced tomatoes
- 1/4 cup diced onions
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp dried oregano
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Prepare the Eggs: In a bowl, whisk the eggs until fully combined. Add salt, pepper, and oregano, and mix well.
- Sauté the Vegetables: Heat olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add onions and sauté for 2-3 minutes until soft. Add spinach, tomatoes, and olives, and cook until spinach is wilted.
- Cook the Omelette: Pour the whisked eggs over the vegetable mixture in the skillet. Spread the mixture evenly and let it cook undisturbed for 1-2 minutes until the edges start to set.
- Add the Feta: Sprinkle crumbled feta cheese over one-half of the omelette. Fold the other half over the filling and cook for another 1-2 minutes until the cheese melts and the omelette is fully cooked.
- Serve: Carefully slide the omelette onto a plate. Garnish with fresh herbs and a drizzle of olive oil. Serve warm.
Notes
- Ingredient Substitutions: Use goat cheese instead of feta for a creamier texture.
- Customization: Add proteins like grilled chicken or turkey for a heartier meal.
- Pan Size: Use an 8- or 10-inch skillet for best results.
- Reheating: Reheat gently in a skillet over low heat to maintain texture.
