Ingredients

1/4 cup of cooked spinach

4 large eggs

1/2 cup of crumbled feta cheese, (about 2 oz.)

2 scallions, thinly sliced

2 Tbsp. of chopped fresh dill

Freshly ground pepper, to taste

2 tsp. of extra-virgin olive oil

 

Preparation:

Squeeze spinach to remove any excess water. Using fork, blend eggs in medium-size bowl. Add feta, scallions, dill, pepper and spinach, mix gently with rubber spatula.

Set a rack about 4 inches from heat source, preheat broiler.

Heat oil in 10-inch non-stick skillet over medium heat. Pour in egg mixture and tilt to distribute evenly. Reduce heat to medium-low and cook until bottom is light golden, lifting edges to allow uncooked egg to flow underneath, about 3 – 4 min.

Place pan under broiler and cook until top is set, 1 1/2 – 2 1/2 min. Slide omelet onto platter and cut into wedges.
