Ingredients

  • 2-3 eggs
  • 1-2 tablespoons water
  • 1 tablespoon butter or olive oil
  • Pinch salt
  • Baby spinach, red onions and cheddar cheese or fillings of choice

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Crack and beat eggs with water in a small bowl.
  2. Heat oil or butter over medium heat in a large non-stick skillet. Pour in egg mixture. As eggs set around the edge of the skillet, with spatula, gently push cooked portions toward the center of the skillet. Tilt and rotate skillet to allow uncooked egg to flow into empty spaces.
  3. When eggs are almost set, add filling to half of the omelette, place a spatula under the un-filled half and fold over.

Notes

  • Storage: A cooked omelette will keep well in the fridge for 3 days and can be reheated in the microwave.
  • * Please note the nutrition label does not include any fillings.
