Prep time 20 mins | Serves 1–2 people
Ingredients
- 3 large eggs
- 1/2 cup fresh spinach, chopped
- 1/4 cup red bell peppers, diced
- 2 Tbsp red onion, diced
- 1/4 tsp garlic, minced
- 1/2 cup baby bella mushrooms, sliced
- 1/4 tsp dried dill
- 1/4 tsp onion powder
- 1/4 tsp dried parsley
- Kosher salt and pepper (to taste)
- 1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese
- 8 slices of English cucumber
- 5 small grape tomatoes, halved
- Italian parsley to garnish
- Extra virgin olive oil
Directions
In a non-stick pan on medium-high heat, sauté the garlic, onions, spinach, and peppers in a tsp of extra virgin olive oil. Cook until tender, then set aside. In that pan with same heat, sauté the mushrooms in 1 tsp of extra virgin olive oil. Season with salt to taste. Cook until tender, then set aside separately.
Whisk eggs, salt, pepper, dill, onion powder, and dried parsley in a bowl. Season your pan with a tsp of olive oil over medium-high heat. Pour in the eggs, which should set immediately at the sides. Push towards the center to let the uncooked egg heat. When eggs are set, add the onion/pepper mixture to one half of the omelet and fold in half. Remove from heat.
Plate and top it with mushrooms, cucumbers, tomatoes, and feta. Garnish with parsley.
