Ingredients

  • 2 Large eggs
  • 1 cup Fresh baby spinach
  • 1/4 cup Sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
  • 1 tablespoon Unsalted butter
  • 1/4 teaspoon Salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon Black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon Milk or water(optional)

Instructions

  1. 1

    In a small bowl, whisk the eggs with salt, pepper, and milk until well combined and slightly frothy.

  2. 2

    Melt the butter in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.

  3. 3

    Add the spinach to the skillet and sauté for 1-2 minutes until just wilted. Remove spinach from the pan and set aside.

  4. 4

    Wipe the skillet if necessary, add a tiny bit more butter if needed, and pour in the egg mixture.

  5. 5

    Let the eggs sit for 30 seconds, then gently push the cooked edges toward the center with a spatula, tilting the pan to let uncooked egg flow to the edges.

  6. 6

    When the eggs are mostly set but still slightly moist on top, sprinkle the sautéed spinach and cheddar cheese over one half of the omelet.

  7. 7

    Fold the omelet in half, cover with a lid for 30 seconds to ensure the cheese is fully melted, and slide onto a plate.
