Ingredients
- 2 large eggs (the fresher, the better, people)
- 1 cup fresh spinach, chopped (Popeye would approve)
- 1/4 cup bell peppers (any color – make it a rainbow party), diced
- 2 tablespoons red onion, finely diced (morning breath be damned)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil (the good stuff, not the sketchy bottle you've had since college)
- Salt and pepper to taste (be generous, we're fighting sugar here, not flavor)
- 1/4 avocado, sliced (nature's butter, but with benefits)
Instructions
- Heat olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat (if it's smoking, you've gone too far).
- Add onions and bell peppers, sauté for 2-3 minutes until softened but not brown and sad.
- Add spinach and cook until wilted, about 1 minute (watch it shrink like your bank account on payday).
- In a bowl, whisk eggs with salt and pepper (put some muscle into it).
- Pour eggs over the vegetables in the skillet (it should sizzle satisfyingly).
- Cook until the bottom is set, then carefully fold the omelet in half (if it falls apart, call it "rustic").
- Cook for another minute until eggs are fully set but not overcooked (rubber eggs are nobody's friend).
- Serve with sliced avocado on the side (because everything is better with avocado).
