This recipe makes a single serving of this delicious cheese ham and spinach omelette. It is perfect for breakfast or brunch and pairs perfectly with some sliced avocados or some wholegrain toast.
This omelette is super quick and easy which is great when you have limited time on your hands. It is packed with protein and contains some important mineral and vitamins from all the vegetables.
The recipe is simple and involves cooking the vegetables then adding the eggs to the vegetables. The omelette is topped with ham and some cheese and then grilled to cook the top. The cheese gives the omelette a gorgeous flavour and goes perfect with the ham and spinach.
The omelette is so pretty and colourful and reminds me of pizza without the dough. It is super yummy and filling and will keep you full for hours. I usually eat it with avocados but it also goes great with some salad or some toast.

How to Make Ham Spinach Omelette
1. Whisk the 2 eggs together, add the salt and black pepper and set aside. Heat a non-stick frying pan on a medium heat then add the onions and cook for 1 minute. Add in the red bell pepper and cook for a further 2 minutes. Add in the spinach and cook until the spinach has wilted.
2. Pour the eggs on top of the cooked vegetables and allow the eggs to set. Once the eggs have set, sprinkle on the ham and cheese spreading them evenly around the omelette and then place the frying pan under the grill to cook the top of the omelette and melt the cheese.
