Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 20 minutes
Servings: 2
Course: Breakfast

Ingredients
  

  • 1 Tbs olive oil
  • 8 oz mushrooms sliced
  • 1 cup spinach chopped
  • 2 eggs large
  • 4 egg whites
  • Salt and pepper
  • 2 Tbs feta cheese crumbled (optional)
  • 2 Tbs parsley fresh, chopped

Method
 

Prep
  1. Wash and chop mushrooms and spinach.
Make
  1. In a medium skillet heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the mushrooms and spinach and cook until the the mushrooms are browned and both have given up most of their liquid, about 3 minutes. Reduce the heat to low.
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together the eggs, salt, and pepper. Pour the eggs over the vegetables. If using the optional feta, add at this point as well. Tilt the pan and lift the edges of the omelet with a spatula as it starts to cook in order to allow the uncooked parts in the middle to flow out to the edges of the pan and cook quicker and more evenly. Cook until the bottom of the omelet begins to slightly brown, about 3 minutes.
  3. Use a spatula to fold the omelet and cook for an additional minute before transferring to a plate and garnishing with fresh parsley. A four 4 egg omelet is enough for 2 people.
