  • 2 cups Fresh spinach
  • 0.5 cup Cottage cheese
  • 0.5 cup Cheddar cheese
  • 1 tablespoon Olive oil
  • 0.5 teaspoon Salt
  • 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
  • 0.25 teaspoon Garlic powder

Directions

Step 1

Crack the eggs into a mixing bowl and add the egg whites. Whisk thoroughly until the mixture is well combined and slightly frothy.

Step 2

Stir in the cottage cheese until it's evenly incorporated with the eggs.

Step 3

Season the egg mixture with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Stir to combine.

Step 4

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

Step 5

Add the spinach to the skillet and sauté for 2-3 minutes, until it's wilted and bright green.

Step 6

Reduce the heat to low and pour the egg mixture over the sautéed spinach.

Step 7

Allow the omelette to cook without stirring for 3-4 minutes or until the bottom is set, but the top is still slightly runny.

Step 8

Sprinkle the cheddar cheese over one half of the omelette.

Step 9

Using a spatula, carefully fold the omelette in half to cover the cheese.

Step 10

Continue to cook for another 2-3 minutes, until the cheese is melted and the omelette is cooked through but still moist.

Step 11

Slide the omelette onto a plate, cut in half, and serve hot.
