Instructions:
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the whole egg and egg whites until well combined.
- Add the grated parmesan cheese, cheddar cheese, salt, red pepper, garlic powder, and white pepper to the egg mixture. Mix thoroughly.
- Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil.
- Once the oil is hot, add the sliced mushrooms, diced green pepper, and chopped onion to the skillet. Sauté for about 3-4 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender and the mushrooms have released their moisture.
- Add the chopped spinach to the skillet and cook for another 1-2 minutes until the spinach has wilted. Remove the vegetable mixture from the skillet and set aside.
- Pour the egg mixture into the same skillet, spreading it out evenly.
- Allow the eggs to cook without stirring for about 2-3 minutes, or until the edges start to set and the bottom is lightly golden.
- Once the eggs are mostly set but still somewhat runny on top, spoon the cooked vegetable mixture evenly over one half of the omelet.
- Using a spatula, carefully fold the other half of the omelet over the filling.
- Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until the eggs are completely set and the cheese is melted.
- Slide the omelet onto a plate, cut it in half if desired, and enjoy hot.
Tips:
- Use fresh spinach and mushrooms for the best flavor and texture.
- Pre-cook the mushrooms and onions to release their moisture and enhance their taste.
- Whisk the eggs and egg whites together thoroughly to ensure a fluffy omelet.
- Cook on medium-low heat to avoid burning the eggs and vegetables.
- Use a non-stick skillet to prevent the omelet from sticking and to make flipping easier.
