Shrimp & Goat Cheese Omelet

The recipe

Serves one

• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 3 omega-3 eggs, whisked
• 2 cooked shrimp, large dice
• 2 tablespoons red onion, grated
• 1 small clove garlic, finely minced
• 1 scant handful of baby spinach leaves, washed
• 1/8 cup of cooked mushrooms
• 1/8 cup of tomato, diced
• 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, minced
• 2 pinches of Herbes de Provence
• sea salt, to taste
• cracked black pepper, to taste
• 2 tablespoons soft French goat cheese, crumbled

Put one tablespoon olive oil in a small omelet pan.  Sauté the onion and garlic, being careful not to burn the garlic. When they begin to soften, add the spinach, tomato, mushrooms, and parsley and simmer gently until the spinach is cooked and any liquids are almost evaporated. Toss in the shrimp and stir well.  Turn this mixture into a dish and add the second spoonful of oil to the pan.  Warm the oil, and then pour in the eggs.  Keep the heat on medium.  Put the shrimp mixture on top of the eggs and sprink with salt, pepper, and herbs.  Top with the goat cheese.  Cover the pan for a minute or two to help the eggs cook through.  Then, using a large spachula, flip one half of the omelet over onto the other.  Turn the omelet onto a plate.  Brush the top with a bit of oil, butter, or buttery spread.  And voilá.

Bon Appétit!
