Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

6 large eggs
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
3 scallions, thinly sliced
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
4 cups baby spinach (about 2 1/2 ounces)
1 baguette, cut crosswise into 4 pieces, each piece split open
6 to 8 slices provolone, cheddar or American cheese (about 4 ounces)
2 tablespoons mayonnaise-mustard blend
8 thin slices ham (about 4 ounces)
Radishes and olives, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350˚ F. Whisk the eggs in a large bowl with 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper; whisk in the scallions. Set aside. Melt the butter in a large ovenproof nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the spinach, season with salt and pepper and cook, tossing to wilt, about 1 minute. Add the eggs to the skillet and move the spinach evenly around with a wooden spoon. Cook until the edges are slightly set, about 1 minute.
  • Transfer the skillet to the oven, along with the baguette pieces. Bake until the bread is toasted and the omelet is just cooked through but not browned, 4 to 6 minutes. Arrange the cheese slices over the omelet during the last minute of cooking to melt.
  • Slide the omelet out of the skillet onto a cutting board. Spread the mayonnaise-mustard blend on one side of each baguette piece. Cut the omelet into 8 wedges. Fill each baguette piece with 2 omelet wedges and 2 slices of ham. Serve with radishes and olives.

BAKED OMELET WITH ONION, SPINACH, AND SWISS CHEESE



Baked Omelet with Onion, Spinach, and Swiss Cheese image

Categories     Cheese     Onion     Bake     Spinach     Swiss Cheese

Yield serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 8

Butter or cooking spray
8 eggs
1/2 cup milk
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/2 small onion
1 cup frozen chopped spinach, thawed and drained (see page 37) or a handful or two of chopped fresh spinach
2 cups grated Swiss cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F. Lightly coat an 8-inch square baking pan with butter or cooking spray.
  • Beat the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper in a large bowl until well combined. Peel the onion and cut into 1/4-inch pieces. Spread the onion, spinach, and Swiss cheese evenly in the pan, then pour in the egg mixture. Bake for 45 to 50 minutes, or until a knife inserted into the center comes out clean. Remove from the oven and serve immediately.
  • food for thought
  • Spinach is an excellent source of iron, calcium, chlorophyll, beta-carotene, vitamin C, riboflavin, sodium, and potassium. But keep in mind that fresh spinach loses much of its nutritional value if it's stored more than a few days. Refrigeration slows the effect somewhat, but it is best to use fresh spinach within a couple of days of buying it. Freezing spinach prevents the loss of most of its nutritional value, so frozen spinach is a great choice, too.

Tips:

  • Use a non-stick skillet to prevent the omelet from sticking.
  • Heat the skillet over medium heat before adding the butter or oil.
  • Swirl the pan to coat the bottom and sides with butter or oil.
  • Pour the egg mixture into the center of the skillet and let it cook for a few seconds without stirring.
  • Gently lift the edges of the omelet with a spatula and tilt the pan to allow the uncooked egg to flow to the bottom.
  • Continue cooking for a few more minutes, or until the omelet is cooked to your liking.
  • Fold the omelet in half or thirds and serve immediately.

Conclusion:

This French omelet with spinach, Swiss cheese, and mushrooms is a delicious and satisfying breakfast or brunch dish. It is easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With its tender eggs, flavorful fillings, and simple preparation, this omelet is sure to become a favorite in your kitchen.
