Ingredients
- 2 large whole eggs
- 3 large egg whites
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 cup spinach
- 0.5 cup, diced bell pepper
- 0.5 cup, halved cherry tomatoes
- 0.25 cup, diced onion
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon, chopped fresh basil
Directions
Step 1
Crack the whole eggs into a small mixing bowl and add the egg whites. Use a whisk or fork to beat the eggs and egg whites together until well blended.
Step 2
Heat the olive oil in a non-stick pan over medium heat.
Step 3
Add the diced onion to the pan and sauté for 2-3 minutes or until it becomes translucent.
Step 4
Add the bell pepper to the pan and cook for another 2 minutes until it starts to soften.
Step 5
Add the spinach and cherry tomatoes to the pan. Stir and cook for another 1-2 minutes until the spinach is wilted.
Step 6
Season the vegetables with salt and black pepper.
Step 7
Pour the egg mixture into the pan over the vegetables. Tilt the pan slightly to spread the eggs evenly over the vegetables.
Step 8
Cook the omelette for 3-5 minutes without stirring, until the edges start to set.
Step 9
Carefully lift one side of the omelette with a spatula and fold it over the other side. Let it cook for another 1-2 minutes to ensure the omelette is cooked through.
Step 10
Slide the omelette onto a plate, garnish with fresh basil, and serve immediately.
