Ingredients

• 4 large eggs
• 2 tablespoons whole milk
• 0.25 teaspoons salt
• 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
• 1 tablespoon butter
• 0.5 medium, diced red bell pepper
• 1 cup, loosely packed spinach
• 0.5 cup shredded cheddar cheese
• 1 stalk, finely chopped green onion
• 1 teaspoon olive oil

Directions

Step 1

In a medium bowl, crack the eggs and whisk them together with the milk, salt, and black pepper until well combined.

Step 2

Prepare the vegetables by dicing the red bell pepper, chopping the green onion, and washing and patting the spinach dry.

Step 3

Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil. Once hot, sauté the diced red bell pepper for 2-3 minutes until slightly softened.

Step 4

Add the spinach to the skillet and cook for 1-2 minutes until wilted. Transfer the cooked vegetables to a small plate and set aside.

Step 5

Lower the heat to medium-low, and in the same skillet, melt the butter, ensuring it coats the bottom evenly.

Step 6

Pour the egg mixture into the skillet, tilting the pan to spread it evenly. Let it cook undisturbed for about 2 minutes until the edges start to set.

Step 7

Sprinkle the cooked vegetables, shredded cheddar cheese, and chopped green onion evenly over one side of the omelet.

Step 8

Using a spatula, carefully fold the other side of the omelet over the filling. Press down gently with the spatula to seal.

Step 9

Cook for another 2-3 minutes, allowing the cheese to melt and the omelet to finish cooking through.

Step 10

Carefully slide the omelet onto a serving plate and cut it in half to serve. Enjoy your perfectly cooked omelet for two!
