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:
- Melt one tablespoon butter in a medium skillet over medium heat. Place onion and bell pepper inside of the skillet. Cook for 4 to 5 minutes stirring occasionally until vegetables are just tender.
- While the vegetables are cooking beat the eggs with the milk, 1/2 teaspoon salt and pepper.
- Shred the cheese into a small bowl and set it aside.
- Remove the vegetables from heat, transfer them to another bowl and sprinkle the remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt over them.
- Melt the remaining 1 tablespoon butter (in the skillet just used to cook the vegetables) over medium heat. Coat the skillet with the butter. When the butter is bubbly add the egg mixture and cook the egg for 2 minutes or until the eggs begin to set on the bottom of the pan. Gently lift the edges of the omelet with a spatula to let the uncooked part of the eggs flow toward the edges and cook. Continue cooking for 2 to 3 minutes or until the center of the omelet starts to look dry.
- Sprinkle the cheese over the omelet and spoon the vegetable mixture into the center of the omelet. Using a spatula gently fold one edge of the omelet over the vegetables. Let the omelet cook for another two minutes or until the cheese melts to your desired consistency. Slide the omelet out of the skillet and onto a plate. Cut in half and serve.

Steps:
- In a cast- iron skillet or a frying pan, saute the potatoes in the olive oil; cook for about 3 minutes in one layer, then turn once and cook for an additional 2 minutes.
- Add the onion, garlic, salt and pepper; cook until the softens and the potatoes are done. Add the spinach and the capers or olives. When the spinach is cooked, remove the pan from the heat.
- Heat a cast-iron frying pan that is well-seasoned enough to handle a large omelet, or use a non-stick skillet. Add the oil to the pre-heated pan and swirl it around the pan. Immediately add the beaten egg mixture and move it around the pan until the egg coats the entire bottom. Tip the pan to distribute the liquid egg that still may be in the center of the pan. Place the vegetables that you are using on top of the egg mixture. Add the crumbled feta cheese.
- *Place under a medium or high broiler and broil until the cheese is meltedand the eggs are set. Watch carefully, since this step takes only a few minutes. Remove from the broiler and sprinkle with the chopped dill, if using. Serve immediately.
- Note: Feta making a folded omelet, place the vegetables and the feta on one side only of the egg mixture. Then place under the broiler to melt the cheese. Then remove from under the broiler and then just fold the remaining half over the vegetable/cheese side. Then just skide it out of the pan and onto a pre-heated(optional) plate or platter.
GREEK BAKED SQUASH OMELET
Greeks often add yogurt to their omelets, which contributes calcium, protein and bacteria long believed to help digestion. Yogurt also gives the omelet a light, fluffy texture. Make this with winter squash in winter and with zucchini in summer.
