- 3 large eggs
- 1 tablespoon milk or water
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1/4 cup red bell pepper, diced
- 1/2 cup mushrooms, sliced
- 1/2 cup fresh spinach
- 2 tablespoons onion, finely chopped
- 1/4 cup shredded mozzarella or dairy-free cheese
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon dried parsley
- Pinch of red chili flakes (optional)
- In a bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, salt, and pepper until well combined and slightly frothy.
- Heat olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
- Add mushrooms, bell pepper, and onion. Sauté for 3–4 minutes until softened.
- Add spinach and cook for another minute until wilted. Remove vegetables and set aside.
- Wipe the skillet clean and pour in the egg mixture. Swirl to coat evenly.
- Cook undisturbed over medium-low heat for 2–3 minutes until the eggs begin to set.
- Sprinkle garlic powder and half of the parsley over the eggs.
- Once the bottom is cooked but the top is slightly runny, add the sautéed vegetables and cheese down the center.
- Carefully fold one side of the omelette over the filling using a spatula. Cook for another 1–2 minutes until cheese melts.
- Slide onto a plate, garnish with remaining parsley and chili flakes if using. Serve immediately.
Notes
- Use dairy-free cheese for a completely dairy-free option.
- Cook on medium-low heat to avoid browning or burning the eggs.
- Add fresh herbs like chives or cilantro for extra flavor.
