Potato Spinach and Feta Cheese Omelet

This is an omelet with a few of my favourite ingredients put together. Spinach and Feta make a delicious pair, and with potatoes and eggs, it couldn't get any better!

You will need:

1 Idaho baking potato, peeled and grated
4 tbsp olive oil (or any cooking oil)
2 cloves garlic
1 (10-ounce) bag of spinach, washed, stemmed, and spun dry
1/3 cup feta cheese, crumbled
4 eggs
1 tbsp butter


Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a 4 to 6-inch nonstick pan. Transfer grated potato to the hot pan. Pat into thin pancake. Cook until golden on one side, 4 to 5 minutes. Turn pancake over and cook until golden on other side, 4 to 5 minutes more.

Pour remaining olive oil into another non-stick pan. Thinly slice 2 cloves of garlic. Place garlic in cold oil and bring up to heat slowly. Saute until garlic is just golden. Remove garlic from pan and add spinach. Cook until just wilted. Remove from pan.

Beat 4 eggs until just combined. Do not beat in too much air into eggs or the texture will be dry. Add 1 tbsp butter to spinach pan. After foam has subsided, pour in the eggs. While stirring the eggs with a fork, shake the pan back and forth.

Once the bottom of the omelet has set, slide in potato pancake. Add spinach and crumbled feta cheese on top of potato. Run omelet under broiler until cheese starts to melt. Remove from broiler and fold into half moon shape. Sprinkle sauted garlic slices over top of omelet. Serve.

This is a fully 'loaded' omelet...enough to satisfy any hunger pang!
