Ingredients

• 3 pieces large eggs
• 1 piece medium-sized onion
• 6 pieces cherry tomatoes
• 1 cup fresh spinach leaves
• 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
• 0.25 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
• 2 tablespoons low sodium Parmesan cheese, grated

Directions

Step 1

Peel and thinly slice the onion. Halve the cherry tomatoes.

Step 2

In a non-stick skillet, melt the unsalted butter over medium-low heat.

Step 3

Add the sliced onions to the skillet and cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they become soft and slightly caramelized.

Step 4

In a bowl, whisk the eggs until they are well-beaten. Season the eggs with ground black pepper.

Step 5

Once the onions are caramelized, add the halved cherry tomatoes to the skillet and cook for an additional 2 minutes.

Step 6

Add the fresh spinach leaves to the skillet, and cook until they are wilted, about 1-2 minutes.

Step 7

Pour the beaten eggs over the vegetables in the skillet, tilting the pan to spread them evenly.

Step 8

Allow the eggs to cook for 2-3 minutes without stirring, until they begin to set around the edges.

Step 9

Sprinkle the omelette with the low sodium Parmesan cheese and chopped parsley.

Step 10

Using a spatula, gently lift the sides of the omelette, allowing the uncooked eggs to flow underneath.

Step 11

Once the omelette is mostly set, carefully fold it in half and cook for another minute.

Step 12

Slide the omelette onto a plate, garnish with additional parsley if desired, and serve immediately.
