This Low Calorie Spinach Omelet with Cheese is just 204 calories and has over 17 grams of protein! This healthy omelette calls for Swiss cheese, but it works with any cheese you like. I prefer “white cheeses” like feta, Swiss, or goat cheese in this vegetarian omelet recipe though.
Ingredients You’ll Need:
- Olive oil spray
- 1 cup baby spinach
- 2 large eggs
- Salt and pepper
- 2 tablespoons swiss cheese or sharp cheddar, feta, or goat cheese
