Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
4 large eggs
1 cup mixed vegetables (I used diced onions, carrots, and bell peppers) or frozen vegetable mix
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
1/2 teaspoon dried tarragon or other herbs
1/2 cup Spam or other cooked meat, diced (leftover meat works great
1/2 cup cheddar cheese or mozzarella, or your favorite cheese blend
1 handful of baby spinach or spring mix (about 1 firmly packed cup)
Sliced avocado
Pico de gallo
Sriracha
Kimchi
Chimichurri

Steps:

  • Heat olive oil in a large, flat-bottom frying pan or cast iron skillet over medium-high heat until hot, about 2 minutes. Meanwhile, beat eggs.
  • Stir in mixed vegetables and cook until they are softened a little, about 2 minutes.
  • Pour the beaten eggs into the pan. Swirl to cover the entire bottom of the pan and all vegetables. Switch to medium heat and let it cook for 3-5 minutes until the eggs start to solidify. After 2 minutes or so, gently lift one side of the omelette using a spatula and tilt the pan to allow the liquid egg mixture (if any) to run down to the bottom so it can cook evenly.
  • In the meantime, sprinkle salt, pepper, smoked paprika, and dried herbs on the egg mixture, followed by Spam, then cheese.
  • Once the cheese starts to melt, add baby spinach to one side of the pan and fold the other side over.
  • Turn off the heat, cut the omelette in half with your spatula and place on two serving plates. Top with your preferred toppings and enjoy!

My whole family loves this omelet recipe. It is easy to substitute everyone's preferred meat, cheese or vegetables to complete the meal. This is one of the few meals that I can get my kids to eat veggies! :-)
