Ingredients

• 3 large eggs
• 1 cup baked beans
• 0.5 cup (diced) red bell pepper
• 0.25 cup (diced) red onion
• 1 cup (loosely packed) spinach leaves
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 tablespoon milk (optional)
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
• 0.25 teaspoon dried oregano
• 0.25 cup grated cheese (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Crack the eggs into a medium-sized bowl and beat them together with a fork or whisk. If desired, add 1 tablespoon of milk for a creamier texture.

Step 2

Season the eggs with salt, black pepper, and dried oregano. Mix well and set aside.

Step 3

Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of olive oil.

Step 4

Once the skillet is hot, add the diced red onion and red bell pepper. Sauté for 2-3 minutes until slightly softened.

Step 5

Add the spinach leaves to the skillet and cook for another 1-2 minutes until wilted.

Step 6

Pour the beaten eggs evenly over the sautéed vegetables in the skillet. Tilt the pan gently to spread the eggs out evenly.

Step 7

Reduce the heat to low and let the omelet cook undisturbed for 2-3 minutes until the edges start to set.

Step 8

Gently spoon the baked beans onto one half of the omelet. If using grated cheese, sprinkle it over the baked beans.

Step 9

Using a spatula, carefully fold the other half of the omelet over the baked beans to form a half-moon shape. Press down gently.

Step 10

Cover the skillet with a lid and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes to ensure the baked beans are warmed through and the eggs are fully cooked.

Step 11

Slide the omelet onto a plate and serve immediately. Optionally, garnish with a sprinkle of fresh herbs or a side of toast.
