Spinach-and-Cheese Omelet

Prep Time : 15 minutes  ... Makes 2 servings

Omelets cook quickly in the skillet. Let your kids pick their own veggie and meat toppings or stick with straight cheese. Serve with fresh fruit and buttered toast.

2 ................large eggs
1 ................tablespoon butter
1 ................cup coarsely chopped spinach
1/3 .............cup chopped tomatoes 
1/8 .............teaspoon salt
1/3 .............cup (1 1/2 oz.) shredded Swiss cheese
1/8 .............teaspoon pepper

1.         Blend and Pour. Process eggs and 2 Tbsp. water in a blender until blended. Melt butter in an 8-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat; add spinach and tomatoes, and saut´´ 1 minute or until spinach is wilted. Add salt and egg mixture to skillet.
2.           Lift and Tilt. As egg mixture starts to cook, gently lift edges of omelet with a spatula, and tilt pan so uncooked egg mixture flows underneath, cooking until almost set (about 1 minute). Cover skillet, and cook 1 minute.
3.         Fold and Serve. Sprinkle omelet with cheese and pepper. Fold omelet in half, allowing cheese to melt. Slide cooked omelet onto a serving plate, and season with salt to taste. Serve with buttered toast and fresh fruit.
