Ingredients
Omelet
- 2 large eggs
- 2 tbsp heavy whipping cream
- salt and ground black pepper
- ½ tbsp butter or coconut oil (optional)
- ¾ cup shredded cheese
Filling
- 2 mushrooms sliced
- 2 cherry tomatoes sliced
- ½ cup baby spinach
- 2 tbsp cream cheese (optional)
- 1 oz. deli turkey
- 1 tsp dried oregano
Instructions
- Whisk together eggs and cream in a bowl. Season with salt and pepper.
- Heat the butter over medium heat in a non-stick frying pan. Spread out the cheese in an even layer so it covers the entire base of the pan. Fry over medium heat until bubbly.
- Carefully pour the egg mixture over the cheese and lower the heat. Cook for a few minutes without stirring.
- Fill one half of the omelet with mushrooms, tomatoes, baby spinach, cream cheese, turkey and oregano. Fry for a few minutes more.
- When the egg mixture starts to set (it can still be quite loose on top, but not too loose), fold the empty half over the side with toppings to form a crescent. Fry for a few more minutes and enjoy!
