MY BIG FAT GREEK OMELET
If you're low-carbing it, try my spinach omelet with tomato and feta filling. If you thaw the spinach and squeeze it dry the night before, this omelet is very doable even for speedy weekday breakfasts.

Steps:
- Heat a 12-inch non-stick skillet over low heat. (Use a 10-inch skillet if you halve the recipe to serve 2 instead of 4.) Meanwhile, in a small bowl, mix tomatoes, 1/2 tsp. oregano, 1/4 tsp. salt, and pepper to taste. Stir in feta.
- In a medium bowl, whisk eggs together, then stir in spinach, 1/2 tsp. oregano, 1/4 tsp. salt, and pepper to taste. A few minutes before cooking omelet, add oil to the pan, and increase heat to medium-high. Heat until wisps of smoke start to rise from the pan. Add the egg mixture to the skillet. Using a plastic or wooden spatula to push back the eggs that have set, tilt the pan and let the uncooked egg mixture run onto the empty portion of the pan. Continue pushing back cooked eggs, tilting the pan and letting uncooked egg mixture flow onto the empty portion of the pan until omelet is moist but fully cooked, about 3 minutes. Reduce heat to low; pour the tomato mixture over half of the omelet. Using a slotted, flat spatula or turner, carefully fold the untopped half over the filling. Use the turner to slide the omelet onto a cutting board. Let stand a minute or two for the filling to warm.
- Cut the omelet into 4 wedges and serve immediately.

Steps:
- 1. Add just a dab of olive oil and butter to fry pan, heat to medium heat.
- 2. Beat the 2 Eggs well and add to pan. Those with a bigger appetite use three Eggs. I stir the Egg in wide circles from the center as it cooks, until it starts to set. And then lower heat to low. Stirring adds a little lightness to it.
- 3. When Egg is 2/3 cooked I place the sliced Feta Cheese on 1/2 the top and cook a bit longer. I then flip half on top of the other and then flip whole thing to other side to provide additional heat for the cheese. You want it Golden but not Brown, and the Feta Cheese to show signs of melting somewhat.
- 4. Note: An excellent addition is to add the well drained Spinach after placing the Feta Cheese atop.
- 5. Toast and beverage of choice -- And Breakfast is Served.
