Spinach and Cheese Omelet

Ingredients 2 large eggs Sprinkle of salt and freshly ground pepper 1⁄2 teaspoon unsalted butter 1 tablespoon diced ripe tomatoes 2 tablespoons thawed frozen spinach, patted dry, or 1/3 cup fresh baby spinach (approx. 10g) 1 tablespoon grated reduced-fat cheddar cheese Directions Whisk the eggs, salt, and pepper in a bowl until very light and frothy.

Add the tomatoes and spinach and cook for 1 minute, stirring, just until hot. Transfer to a small plate or bowl and set aside. (Do not rinse the skillet.)Return the skillet to medium-low heat, add the eggs, and cook for about 20 seconds.

Distribute the cheese on top, followed by the reserved tomato-spinach mixture. Reduce the heat to low and cook for 1 to
