Main Dish Instructions
Prep
1. Crack the eggs into a mixing bowl and season with salt and ground black pepper. Whisk thoroughly until the yolks and whites are fully combined.
2. Shred the cheddar cheese and roughly chop the fresh spinach to prepare the omelet fillings.
Cook
3. Melt a small knob of butter in a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat until it begins to foam.
4. Pour one-fourth of the egg mixture into the pan, swirling to cover the bottom entirely. Immediately place a tortilla on top of the wet eggs, pressing down gently.
5. Once the egg has set and adhered to the tortilla (about 2 minutes), use a wide spatula to flip the entire tortilla and egg together in one motion.
6. Sprinkle cheddar and spinach over one half of the tortilla. Fold the tortilla in half like a taco and cook for 30 seconds until the cheese is melted.
Serve
7. Slide the folded omelet hack onto a plate and repeat the process for the remaining three servings.
