Ingredients

  • 2 large Eggs
  • 1/4 teaspoon Garlic Powder
  • to taste Salt and Black Pepper
  • 2 tablespoons Olive Oil divided
  • 1 cup Fresh Baby Spinach
  • 1/4 cup Grated Parmesan Cheese

Instructions

  • Start by gathering all your ingredients. Rinse the fresh baby spinach under cold water and pat it dry with a paper towel.
  • In a mixing bowl, crack the two large eggs and add the garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Beat the eggs until frothy.
  • Place a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Wait until it shimmers.
  • Add the fresh baby spinach to the skillet and sauté for about 1-2 minutes until it wilts down.
  • In the same skillet, pour in the beaten eggs, spreading them evenly. Cook undisturbed for about 1-2 minutes until the edges set.
  • Once the edges of the eggs are set, distribute the sautéed spinach over one half of the omelet. Sprinkle Parmesan on top.
  • Using a spatula, fold the other half of the omelet over the spinach and cheese. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until the cheese melts.
  • Slide the omelet onto a plate, cut it in half or leave it whole, and serve warm.
