Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions for 15-Minute Mediterranean Feta Omelet
  1. In a non-stick skillet, heat 1 teaspoon of extra virgin olive oil over low heat. Once the oil shimmers, add 1 minced garlic clove and sauté for about 2 minutes until fragrant and golden.
  2. Next, add 1 small diced tomato and ¼ cup sliced green bell pepper to the skillet, increasing the heat to medium. Stir the vegetables and cook for an additional 2 minutes until they soften.
  3. Return the skillet to the stove and add the remaining olive oil if needed. Pour in 3 whisked eggs, letting them sit undisturbed for about 2 minutes over medium heat.
  4. When the eggs are almost fully set, layer the sautéed vegetable mixture over one half of the omelet. Sprinkle 1 ounce of crumbled feta cheese and 4 chopped Kalamata olives on top.
  5. Gently fold the omelet in half, covering the filling, and allow it to cook for another minute until the cheese starts to melt. Serve with 1 teaspoon of balsamic vinegar, garnished with parsley, salt, and pepper.
