Equipment

  • Hand Mixer or Stand Mixer fitted with the whisk attachment
  • 8" or 10" Nonstick Skillet

Ingredients
  

  • Nonstick Cooking Spray
  • 6-7 large Eggs
  • Onion, Green Onion or Chives chopped, optional
  • 1/2 c Cheddar Cheese shredded
  • 1 c Baby Spinach Leaves stems removed
  • 1/8 tsp Salt or more, to taste
  • Pepper to taste
  • Salsa for serving
  • Parsley or Green Onion for garnish

Instructions
 

  • Place 6-7 large eggs into a bowl and using a hand mixer, beat until foamy.
  • Preheat a nonstick skillet and add butter or use nonstick cooking spray to generously coat the bottom of the pan.
  • Add the eggs, stirring with a spatula until you see some scrambles mixed with the liquid egg mixture.
  • Add the cheese and spinach (I like to wilt mine just slightly in dry pan over high heat for 1 minute before adding). Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
  • Allow to cook over medium low heat until set and fold in half. Allow to cook for another minute or two.
  • Place a serving plate over the top of the pan and flip the omelet out onto it.
  • Serve with your favorite salsa.
