Ingredients

• 4 large eggs
• 1 cup fresh spinach leaves, chopped
• 1/3 cup feta cheese, crumbled
• 2 tablespoons milk
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

1. In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper until well combined.
2. Heat olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped spinach and sauté for about 2 minutes, or until wilted.
3. Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and cook without stirring for about 2-3 minutes, or until the edges start to set.
4. Sprinkle the crumbled feta cheese evenly over the eggs.
5. Using a spatula, gently fold one half of the omelet over the other. Cook for another 2 minutes, or until the eggs are fully set and the cheese is melted.
6. Gently slide the omelet onto a serving plate. Garnish with a few fresh spinach leaves and additional feta cheese, if desired. Serve immediately.

Helpful Tips

For a fluffier omelet, separate the egg whites and yolks. Whip the whites until they form soft peaks and then gently fold in the yolks. You can also add a splash of water instead of milk for an even lighter texture.

Storage Instructions

Store any leftover omelet in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. To reheat, place it in a skillet over low heat or use the microwave.

Ingredient Substitutions

If you don’t have feta cheese, try using goat cheese or ricotta for a different yet delicious flavor. For a dairy-free option, you can omit the cheese entirely or use a dairy-free cheese substitute.

Pairings

This Spinach and Feta Omelet pairs beautifully with a side of fresh fruit or whole-grain toast. For a complete meal, enjoy it with a cup of herbal tea or freshly squeezed orange juice.
