Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- ¼ cup Red Onions finely chopped
- ¼ cup red bell peppers finely chopped
- ¼ cup mushrooms sliced
- 1 cup baby spinach
- salt and pepper to taste
- 2-3 eggs
- 1 tablespoon water
- 2 tablespoons shredded cheddar cheese
- fresh parsley for serving
Instructions
- Heat olive oil in an 8-inch or 10-inch non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the red onions, red peppers and mushrooms and cook until crisp tender, about 3-5 minutes. Add the spinach and continue cooking until the spinach wilts, about 1 more minute. Transfer the vegetables to a small bowl and wipe down the pan.
- Crack and beat eggs with water in a small bowl. Pour the egg mixture in the same pan. As eggs begin to set around the edge of the skillet, use a spatula to gently push cooked portions toward the center of the skillet. Tilt and rotate the skillet to allow uncooked eggs to flow into empty spaces.
- When eggs are almost set, add the cooked vegetables to half of the omelet and add the cheddar cheese on top. Place a spatula under the un-filled half, and fold over.
- Gently slide from the skillet onto a plate. Season with salt and pepper and serve immediately top with fresh parsley

Notes
- Storage: This omelet is best enjoyed immediately after cooking. But if you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
