Ingredients

• 4 large eggs
• 1/4 cup diced tomatoes
• 1/4 cup chopped kalamata olives
• 1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese
• 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley

• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• Salt & pepper to taste

Instructions

2. Heat olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
3. Once the oil is hot, pour the eggs into the skillet.
4. As the eggs begin to set, gently lift the edges with a spatula, letting the uncooked eggs flow to the edges.
5. When the eggs are almost set, sprinkle the diced tomatoes, kalamata olives, and crumbled feta evenly over one half of the omelet.
6. Sprinkle the chopped herbs on top and fold the omelet in half to cover the fillings.
7. Cook for another 1-2 minutes until the cheese begins to melt and the omelet is golden brown.
8. Carefully slide the omelet onto a plate and serve immediately.

Helpful Tips

If you’re new to making omelets, keep the heat at medium to avoid burning and ensure even cooking.

To make this recipe even easier, prepare the diced tomatoes and chopped olives in advance. You can store them in the fridge for up to three days.

Storage Instructions

Leftover omelet can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to two days. Reheat gently in a skillet over low heat or in the microwave.

Ingredient Substitutions

If you don’t have kalamata olives, regular black olives work well too. You can also substitute fresh herbs with dried equivalents, using about 1 teaspoon of each.

Pairings
