Ingredients

• 4 large eggs
• 1 cup spinach
• 6 whole cherry tomatoes
• 0.25 cup feta cheese
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 0.25 cup onion
• 2 tablespoons fresh basil
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Crack the eggs into a bowl, season with salt and black pepper, and whisk until the yolks and whites are fully mixed.

Step 2

Dice the onion and slice the cherry tomatoes in half.

Step 3

Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.

Step 4

Add the diced onions to the pan and cook until they are translucent, about 2 minutes.

Step 5

Add the spinach and cook until wilted, which should take about 2 minutes more.

Step 6

Remove the spinach and onions from the skillet and set aside.

Step 7

Wipe the skillet clean and add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil.

Step 8

Pour in the beaten eggs and cook for 2 minutes or until the edges start to set.

Step 9

Gently lift the edges of the omelette with a spatula and tilt the pan to let uncooked egg flow to the edges.

Step 10

Once the omelette is mostly set, add the sautéed spinach, onions, sliced tomatoes, and crumbled feta cheese on one half of the omelette.

Step 11

Gently fold the other half of the omelette over the fillings and let it cook for another minute to allow the cheese to melt.

Step 12

Remove from heat and garnish with fresh basil.

Step 13

Serve immediately and enjoy your Mediterranean Diet Classic Omelette.
