Greek Omelet With Asparagus And Feta Cheese Recipes

FETA CHEESE OMELET -- GREEK

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.
