Equipment

  • Whisk

  • Small Mixing bowl

  • Rubber spatula

  • Small Non-stick pan

Ingredients

  • 1 Cup fresh spinach leaves

  • 2 garlic gloves, sliced

  • 2-3 Eggs

  • 1 Tbsp Ghee (divided in into ½ Tbsp)

  • Freshly Ground Nutmeg (optional)

  • Salt and Pepper to taste

Instructions

1
In a medium bowl, season eggs with salt and pepper, and then whisk for 1 minute. Set aside.
2
In your small skillet, melt ½ Tbsp of ghee over medium-high heat. Add the garlic and cook until light brown. Do not burn the garlic, or it will be better. Remove and set aside.
3
Add the spinach to the skillet and sauté for 2 minutes. If you are using the ground nutmeg, then add now. Remove the spinach and set it aside. If you need to wipe the pan at this point, use a paper towel and wipe it clean.
4
Add the remaining ½ Tbsp of ghee and melt. Add the whisked eggs. Using a silicone spatula push the edges of the egg, toward the center of the pan, as they set and tilt the pan to spread the uncooked egg underneath. Continue pushing in the edges of the eggs and tilting the skillet, working all around the pan, until the omelet is almost set. This should take about 40 or 50 seconds.
5
Now add the first, then add the goat’s cheese, and top with the fried garlic over half of the omelet. Flip the other side of the omelet and let it set for about another 30 seconds to 1 minute depending on who firm you want the eggs. You don’t want them 100% set because the egg continues to cook even after you remove it from the heat. Transfer to plate and serve immediately.

Enjoy! Bon Appetit! Kali Orexi!

Notes

You can make this recipe with either 2 or 3 eggs depending on your macros for the day. Also, you can replace the goat’s cheese with any other cheese that you fancy. Also, you can do this with chicory or swiss chard leaves as well. If you are meal planning and want to take this omelet to work, where you will reheat it, then once you flip over the ½ of the omelet, remove it immediately and put it in your Tupperware or meal prep container, even if it is raw and runny. Because you will re-heat it at work, you don’t want to microwave already cooked and set eggs; otherwise, you will be eating rubber. By removing them raw, you give them a chance to completely set and cook during your microwave reheating process.
