OMELET WITH ASPARAGUS, GREENS, AND PECORINO
Fold the greens right inside this fluffy meal. The tangy, salty flavors of Pecorino are well suited to both the peppery arugula and the mild egg.

Steps:
- In a pot of salted boiling water, blanch asparagus until bright green and tender, about 2 minutes. Transfer to an ice bath and drain.
- Heat a large skillet over medium-low heat. Add oil and swirl to coat. Whisk eggs in a bowl and add salt. Season with pepper. Pour into pan and cook until omelet is just set, 7 to 8 minutes. (Occasionally tilt pan and lift up sides of set egg with a spatula to allow uncooked egg to run underneath.)
- Top half of omelet with Pecorino, asparagus, and arugula. Flip other half over top and cook until cheese melts, about 30 seconds more. Cut into wedges to serve.

ASPARAGUS OMELET
I love this recipe as a way to get kids comfortable with cooking. An omelet is an easy meal and this one is actually served open-faced, so there's no tricky flipping or folding involved. Add my asparagus salsa for a really fresh crunchy note that contrasts nicely with the tender eggs and asparagus.

Steps:
- For the omelet: Trim the ends of the asparagus spears by holding the bottom end of each spear in your hand and bending gently to snap off the end. Drizzle the asparagus with the oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Heat a small nonstick saute pan over medium-high heat. Add the asparagus and cook until crisp tender, about 2 minutes. Transfer the asparagus to a plate and set aside. Wipe out the saute pan.
- To make the omelet, whisk together the eggs, 1 tablespoon water and chipotle powder. Melt the butter in the saute pan over medium heat, then pour in the egg mixture. Allow to cook, undisturbed, until the edges set completely, 2 minutes. Sprinkle a little salt and pepper over the top, then place the cooked asparagus spears on top. Cover and cook until the eggs set, 2 minutes. Slide the omelet onto a plate. Garnish with the Asparagus Salsa if desired.
- For the asparagus salsa: Place the asparagus, carrots, radishes and red onions in a food processor and pulse a few times until the vegetables are finely diced but not pureed.
- Transfer to a large bowl and add the dill, scallions, serrano chile, lemon zest and juice. Mix together well, season to taste with salt and pepper and let stand at room temperature for 1 hour to allow the flavors to develop if time allows. The salsa can be refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 1 week. Makes 2 cups.

Steps:
- Wash the spinach and wilt in a frying pan over medium-high heat. The water remaining on the spinach leaves after washing will be sufficient. Drain, allow to cool and squeeze out excess water. Chop medium-fine and toss with half the garlic and salt and pepper to taste.
- Break the eggs into another bowl and beat with a fork or a whisk until they are frothy. Whisk in the remaining garlic, salt and pepper to taste and 2 to 3 teaspoons milk.
- Heat an 8-inch nonstick omelet pan over medium-high heat. Add 2 teaspoons olive oil. Hold your hand an inch or two above the pan, and when it feels hot, pour the eggs into the middle of the pan, scraping every last bit into the pan with a rubber spatula. Swirl the pan to distribute the eggs evenly over the surface. Shake the pan gently, tilting it slightly with one hand while lifting up the edges of the omelet with the spatula in your other hand, to let the eggs run underneath during the first few minutes of cooking.
- As soon as the eggs are set on the bottom, sprinkle the spinach over the middle of the egg pancake and top with the Parmesan, then jerk the pan quickly away from you then back toward you so that the omelet folds over on itself. If you don't like your omelet runny in the middle (I do), jerk the pan again so that the omelet folds over once more. Cook for a minute or two longer. Tilt the pan and roll the omelet out onto a plate.
