Ingredients

  • 3 large eggs
  • 2 tablespoons heavy cream
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1 quarter cup cheddar cheese, shredded
  • 0.25 cup bell pepper, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons green onion, chopped
  • 0.5 cup fresh spinach
  • 0.25 teaspoon salt
  • 0.25 teaspoon black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Crack the eggs into a medium mixing bowl, add heavy cream, salt, and pepper. Whisk together until fully combined and slightly frothy.

Step 2

In a non-stick skillet over medium heat, melt the butter, ensuring the entire bottom of the pan is coated.

Step 3

Add the chopped bell pepper and green onion to the skillet. Sauté for about 2-3 minutes, or until the vegetables have softened slightly.

Step 4

Add the fresh spinach to the skillet and cook for another minute until wilted.

Step 5

Pour the egg mixture into the skillet over the cooked vegetables, tilting the pan to ensure even distribution.

Step 6

Cook the eggs without stirring for about 3-4 minutes until the edges start to set.

Step 7

Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese evenly over one half of the omelette.

Step 8

Using a spatula, gently lift one side of the omelette and fold it over the cheese side.

Step 9

Continue to cook for another 2 minutes until the cheese is melted and the eggs are cooked through.

Step 10

Carefully slide the omelette onto a plate, garnish with extra green onion or a small sprinkle of cheese if desired, and serve warm.
