Course Breakfast

Ingredients

Omelet

2 eggs
2 tbsp heavy whipping cream
salt and ground black pepper
½ tbsp butter or coconut oil optional
3 oz. ¾ cup shredded cheese

Filling

2 mushrooms sliced
2 1¼ oz. cherry tomatoes, sliced
½ cup ½ oz. baby spinach
2 tbsp cream cheese optional
1 oz. deli turkey
1 tsp dried oregano

Instructions

Whisk together eggs and cream in a bowl. Season with salt and pepper.
Heat the butter over medium heat in a non-stick frying pan. Spread out the cheese in an even layer in the pan, so it covers the entire bottom. Fry on medium heat until bubbly.
Carefully pour the egg mixture over the cheese and lower the heat. Cook for a few minutes without stirring.
Fill one half with mushrooms, tomatoes, baby spinach, cream cheese, turkey and oregano. Fry for a few minutes more.
When the egg mixture starts to set (it can still be quite loose on top, but not too loose), turn the empty half over the topping side, forming a crescent. Fry for a few more minutes and enjoy!
