Ingredients

• 2 large Eggs
• 2 large Egg whites
• 1 cup Fresh spinach
• 0.5 cup Cherry tomatoes
• 0.5 medium Red bell pepper
• 1 teaspoon Olive oil
• 2 tablespoons Low-fat feta cheese
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.125 teaspoon Salt

Directions

Step 1

Crack the eggs into a medium bowl, add the egg whites, and whisk until fully combined and slightly frothy.

Step 2

Wash and pat dry the fresh spinach. Halve the cherry tomatoes. Dice the red bell pepper.

Step 3

Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil.

Step 4

Add the chopped red bell pepper to the skillet and sauté for about 2 minutes or until slightly softened.

Step 5

Add the spinach and cherry tomatoes to the skillet. Cook for another 2-3 minutes until the spinach has wilted and the tomatoes are slightly soft. Remove the vegetables from the skillet and set aside.

Step 6

Pour the egg mixture into the skillet, ensuring it covers the entire base evenly. Allow it to cook for 1-2 minutes without stirring until the edges begin to set.

Step 7

Sprinkle the sautéed vegetables and low-fat feta cheese over one half of the omelet.

Step 8

Season with black pepper and salt.

Step 9

Using a spatula, carefully lift the uncovered half of the omelet and fold it over the filling.

Step 10

Continue to cook the folded omelet for another 1-2 minutes until the inside is cooked to your liking.

Step 11

Slide the omelet onto a plate and serve immediately.
