Equipment

Ingredients

  • 3 Large Eggs
  • 1 Cup Fresh Spinach chopped
  • 2 Ounces Goat Cheese crumbled
  • 1 Tablespoon Butter
  • 1/2 teaspoon Salt to taste
  • 1/4 teaspoon Pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Chop the spinach, crumble the goat cheese, and keep butter and seasonings within reach so cooking goes smoothly.
  • Crack the eggs into a bowl, season lightly with salt and pepper, and whisk until fully blended and smooth.
  • Melt butter in a non-stick skillet over medium heat, then sauté the spinach just until wilted.
  • Pour eggs over the spinach, cook until mostly set, add goat cheese to one side, fold, and cook another minute until warm and creamy.

Notes

  • Make sure the skillet is hot before adding the egg mixture. This helps the omelet set quickly without sticking and keeps the spinach from overcooking.
  • Tear the spinach leaves into smaller pieces for even distribution. It makes each bite balanced with greens and egg.
  • Let the goat cheese sit at room temperature for a few minutes before adding. Soft cheese melts better and adds a creamy texture without curdling.
  • Don’t overfill the omelet with spinach or cheese. Keeping it light makes it easier to fold and gives a soft, fluffy finish.
