Instructions
- Prepare Vegetables: On a cutting board, chop the bell peppers, onions, tomatoes, and spinach into small, uniform pieces. Set aside.
- Beat Eggs: In a mixing bowl, crack the eggs and add milk (if using), salt, and black pepper. Whisk until well combined and slightly frothy.
- Preheat Skillet: Heat the non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the olive oil or butter and let it melt, coating the bottom of the skillet evenly.
- Cook Vegetables: Add the chopped onions and bell peppers to the skillet. Sauté for about 3-4 minutes, or until the vegetables are softened. Add the tomatoes and spinach, and cook for an additional 2 minutes, stirring occasionally.
-
Add Eggs: Pour the beaten eggs over the sautéed vegetables in the skillet. Tilt the skillet to ensure the eggs spread out evenly. Let it cook undisturbed for about 2-3 minutes, or until the edges start to set.
-
Add Cheese: If using cheese, sprinkle it evenly over the omelet.
-
Fold Omelet: Using a spatula, gently fold the omelet in half. Cook for another 1-2 minutes, or until the eggs are fully set and the cheese is melted.
