Description
A classic, fluffy Spinach and Feta Omelet recipe that’s perfect for a quick breakfast or brunch. Packed with savory spinach and tangy feta cheese, it’s a delicious and healthy way to start your day.
Ingredients
2 large eggs
1 tbsp milk or water (optional)
1/4 cup fresh spinach, chopped
2 tbsp crumbled feta cheese
1/2 tsp olive oil or butter
Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
1. In a small bowl, whisk together eggs, milk (if using), salt, and pepper until well combined and slightly frothy.
2. Heat olive oil or butter in a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat.
3. Pour the egg mixture into the hot skillet and cook undisturbed for about 30 seconds, until the edges begin to set.
4. Sprinkle the chopped spinach and crumbled feta over one half of the omelet.
5. Using a spatula, fold the empty half over the filled half.
6. Cook 1–2 minutes more, until the cheese softens and the eggs reach your preferred doneness.
7. Slide onto a plate and serve immediately.
Notes
For a lighter option, use egg whites only.
Try additions like diced tomatoes, mushrooms, or herbs with the spinach and feta.
Avoid overcooking—the center should be just set for a creamy texture.
