Why Everyone's Making This Spinach Omelet (Even People Who Hate Veggies!)

cheese

🥗Healthier: nutritional yeast

💰Cheaper: cottage cheese

Nutritional yeast adds a cheesy flavor without dairy.

olive oil

🥗Healthier: avocado oil

💰Cheaper: vegetable oil

Vegetable oil is more affordable and works well for frying.

Heat extra virgin olive oil in a non-stick pan over high heat.

Add fresh spinach, diced tomato, onion, and green pepper to the pan.

Season with kosher salt and cracked black pepper; stir to combine.

Reduce heat to medium and sauté until the spinach wilts and vegetables soften.

Turn off the heat and let the vegetables sit in the pan.

In a bowl, crack 3 eggs and add 3 tablespoons of sparkling water; whisk until combined and ribbons form.

Turn the burner back on to medium heat and pour the egg mixture over the vegetables in the pan.

Let the omelet cook undisturbed for about 2 minutes until the edges start to set.

Cover the pan with a lid and turn off the heat; let it sit for 1.5 to 2 minutes to cook through with residual heat.

Remove the lid and sprinkle shredded jack cheese over the omelet; cover again and turn the heat back on to low.

Cook for another 2 minutes until the cheese melts.

Carefully slide the omelet onto a plate, folding it over as you do so.
