Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- 1/4 cup diced bell peppers (any color)
- 1/4 cup diced tomatoes
- 1/4 cup chopped spinach
- 1/4 cup finely chopped onions
- 2 tablespoons milk
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- 1 tablespoon olive oil or butter
- Chopped fresh herbs (parsley or chives) for garnish
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, whisk the eggs and milk together until well combined. Season with a pinch of salt and black pepper.
- Heat the olive oil or butter in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
- Once the oil is hot, add the onions and bell peppers. Sauté for about 2 minutes until they start to soften.
- Add the tomatoes and spinach to the skillet, and cook for another 2 minutes until the spinach wilts and the tomatoes soften.
- Pour the egg mixture into the skillet, spreading it out evenly over the vegetables. Let it cook undisturbed for about 2-3 minutes, or until the edges start to set.
- Once the edges are set, carefully lift one side of the omelette with a spatula and fold it over the filling.
- Cook for another 1-2 minutes until the omelette is fully set and cooked through.
- Garnish with freshly chopped herbs before serving.
- Serve hot, paired with a warm cup of tea or freshly squeezed orange juice.
