Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Add the chopped green onions to the pan and sauté for 1-2 minutes until softened.
Add the fresh spinach to the skillet and cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring occasionally, until wilted.
Reduce the heat to low and pour the egg mixture over the cooked spinach and green onions.
Allow the eggs to cook undisturbed for 2-3 minutes until the edges begin to set.
Spread the cottage cheese evenly over one half of the omelette.
Using a spatula, carefully lift the other half of the omelette and fold it over the side with the cottage cheese.
Continue cooking for an additional 2-3 minutes until the center is fully cooked and the omelette is heated through.
Carefully transfer the omelette to a plate and serve hot.
