Ingredients

Scale

Omelet Base

  • 3 eggs
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste
  • 12 tablespoons olive oil

Fillings

  • 3 ounces sliced mushrooms (any variety)
  • 1 cup baby spinach
  • 2 tablespoons crumbled goat’s cheese
  • ½ ripe avocado, diced

Garnish

  • Chopped fresh parsley

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Mushrooms: Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced mushrooms, season with salt and black pepper, and sauté until tender and slightly browned, about 5-7 minutes.
  2. Add Spinach: Add the baby spinach to the skillet with the mushrooms and cook until wilted, about 1-2 minutes. Remove mixture from skillet and set aside.
  3. Make the Omelet Base: In a bowl, whisk the 3 eggs with a pinch of salt and pepper until well combined.
  4. Cook the Omelet: Heat the remaining olive oil in the same skillet over medium heat. Pour in the beaten eggs and swirl the pan to evenly coat the bottom. Cook the eggs until they begin to set but are still slightly runny on top, about 2-3 minutes.
  5. Add Fillings: Spoon the mushroom and spinach mixture evenly over one half of the omelet. Sprinkle with crumbled goat’s cheese and diced avocado.
  6. Fold and Finish: Carefully fold the omelet over the fillings using a spatula. Cook for another 1-2 minutes to allow the cheese to soften and the avocado to warm slightly.
  7. Serve: Slide the omelet onto a plate, garnish with chopped fresh parsley, and serve immediately.

Notes

  • You can substitute goat’s cheese with feta or cream cheese if preferred.
  • Use any fresh mushrooms such as cremini, shiitake, or button mushrooms.
  • For a dairy-free version, omit the goat’s cheese and add sliced avocado or nuts for creaminess.
  • Cook the omelet on medium heat to avoid browning too much and maintain a tender texture.
  • Adding fresh herbs like chives or thyme can enhance the flavor profile.
