Spinach and Cheese Omelet
Ingredients
  • 2/3 cup  chopped red sweet pepper
  • 2 tablespoons  finely chopped onion
  • 1 tablespoon  cider vinegar
  • 1/4 teaspoon  black pepper
  • Nonstick cooking spray
  • 4 eggs or 1 cup refrigerated or frozen egg product, thawed
  • Dash salt
  • Dash ground red pepper
  • 1/4 cup  shredded sharp cheddar cheese (1 ounce)
  • 1 tablespoon  snipped fresh chives, Italian flat-leaf parsley, or chervil
  • 1 cup  spinach leaves
Directions

1. For the red pepper relish, in a small bowl combine red sweet pepper, onion, cider vinegar, and black pepper. Set aside.

2. Coat an unheated 8-inch nonstick skillet with flared sides or a crepe pan with cooking spray. Heat skillet over medium heat.

3. In a large bowl combine eggs, salt, and ground red pepper. Using a rotary beater or wire whisk, beat the egg mixture until frothy. Pour into the prepared skillet; cook over medium heat. As eggs set, run a spatula around edge of skillet, lifting eggs so uncooked portion flows underneath.

4. When eggs are set but still shiny, sprinkle with cheese and chives. Top with 3/4 cup of the spinach and 2 tablespoons of the relish. Fold one side of omelet partially over filling. Top with the remaining spinach and 1 tablespoon of the relish. (Reserve the remaining relish for another use.) Cut the omelet in half. Transfer to two dinner plates. Makes 2 servings.
