Ingredients

Veggies

2 T fresh thyme remove leaves from stem and quick chop
1 C spinach julienne the spinach
20 halved cherry tomatoes
1 t olive oil
Salt and lemon pepper to taste
1 minced shallot

Omelet

1 T olive oil 1.5t per omelet for oiling the skillet
4 large scrambled eggs 2 eggs per omelet
1 oz Feta cheese Atheno herbed crumbled
3 grinds lemon pepper

Instructions

Mise en place

Gather and wash all produce (veggies and herbs) and cut everything per recipe directions.
Place thyme, spinach, tomatoes in a bowl. Mix with 1t of olive oil and add salt and lemon pepper. Mix.

Cook the Veggies

Heat a skillet and first add 1.5t oil and then the shallot and cook until aromatic and just starting to turn translucent. Then scrape out all the oil and veggies/herbs from the bowl. You want the spinach wilted, the onions soft, the tomatoes just warm, but do not over cook. Remove from heat and scrape back into the bowl.

Omelet

Beat 2 eggs in a small bowl with salt and pepper. Use the already heated skillet, add1.5t oil, pour eggs into the skillet and swirl into a pancake circle. Cook until set, flip to cook other side, then just slide onto a plate. Do again with the other eggs.
Serve the flat open faced omelet, topped with portions of the roasted veggies, then add the herbed crumbled feta on top. I also add a few twists of the lemon pepper grinder for color. I

Notes
