Spinach & Tomato Omelet
Spinach & Tomato Omelet
1 tsp. extra-virgin olive oil
5 cherry tomatoes, halved
1 scallion, sliced
1 cup baby spinach, washed, with water still clinging to leaves
½ cup liquid egg substitute
¼ cup shredded fat-free Cheddar cheese
1/8 tsp. freshly ground black pepper
1 Tbsp. water
Spray a small non-stick skillet with cooking spray. Add oil and heat over med-high heat. Add tomatoes and scallion and cook, stirring once or twice, until softened, 1 – 2 minutes. Place spinach on top, cover and let wilt, about 30 seconds. Stir to combine.
Pour in egg substitute, reduce heat to med-low and continue cooking, stirring constantly with a heat-proof rubber spatula, until the egg is starting to set, about 20 seconds. Continue cooking, lifting the edges so the uncooked egg will flow underneath, until mostly set, about 30 seconds more.
Sprinkle cheese and pepper over the omelet. Lift up an edge of the omelet and drizzle the remaining 1 Tbsp. water under it. Cover, reduce heat to low and cook until the egg is completely set and the cheese is melted, about 2 minutes. Fold over using the spatula and serve.
