Ingredients
- 3 large eggs
- 1 tablespoon heavy cream
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 0.5 cup grated cheddar cheese
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives
- 0.25 cup sliced mushrooms
- 0.5 cup baby spinach leaves
Directions
Step 1
Crack the eggs into a medium bowl and add the heavy cream, salt, and black pepper. Whisk the mixture until well combined and slightly frothy.
Step 2
In a non-stick skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of unsalted butter over medium heat until melted and beginning to bubble.
Step 3
Add the sliced mushrooms to the pan, sauté for about 2-3 minutes until they are soft and any released moisture has evaporated.
Step 4
Add the baby spinach leaves to the mushrooms in the skillet, gently stirring until the spinach is wilted, approximately 1 minute.
Step 5
Pour the egg mixture into the skillet over the mushrooms and spinach. Using a spatula, gently pull the cooked edges towards the center, allowing the uncooked eggs to spread to the edges.
Step 6
Once the eggs are mostly set, sprinkle the grated cheddar cheese over half of the omelette and let it sit for about 1 minute until melted.
Step 7
Carefully fold the omelette in half using the spatula. Slide it onto a serving plate.
Step 8
Garnish with the chopped fresh chives on top.
Step 9
Serve hot and enjoy your low carb delicious omelette!
