Instructions

1

In a bowl, whisk the eggs until well beaten. Season with salt and pepper.

2

Heat the vegetable oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.

3

Add the chopped bell peppers, onions, mushrooms, and spinach to the skillet. Cook until vegetables are tender, about 5 minutes.

4

Pour the beaten eggs over the cooked vegetables. Allow the eggs to set slightly.

5

Gently lift the edges of the omelette with a spatula and tilt the skillet to allow the uncooked eggs to flow to the edges.

6

Sprinkle grated cheese (if using) over one half of the omelette.

7

Fold the omelette in half and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the cheese is melted and the eggs are fully cooked.

8

Slide the omelette onto a plate, cut in half, and serve hot.

9

Enjoy with a side of salad or bread.
