Steps:
- Wash the spinach and wilt in a frying pan over medium-high heat. The water remaining on the spinach leaves after washing will be sufficient. Drain, allow to cool and squeeze out excess water. Chop medium-fine and toss with half the garlic and salt and pepper to taste.
- Break the eggs into another bowl and beat with a fork or a whisk until they are frothy. Whisk in the remaining garlic, salt and pepper to taste and 2 to 3 teaspoons milk.
- Heat an 8-inch nonstick omelet pan over medium-high heat. Add 2 teaspoons olive oil. Hold your hand an inch or two above the pan, and when it feels hot, pour the eggs into the middle of the pan, scraping every last bit into the pan with a rubber spatula. Swirl the pan to distribute the eggs evenly over the surface. Shake the pan gently, tilting it slightly with one hand while lifting up the edges of the omelet with the spatula in your other hand, to let the eggs run underneath during the first few minutes of cooking.
- As soon as the eggs are set on the bottom, sprinkle the spinach over the middle of the egg pancake and top with the Parmesan, then jerk the pan quickly away from you then back toward you so that the omelet folds over on itself. If you don't like your omelet runny in the middle (I do), jerk the pan again so that the omelet folds over once more. Cook for a minute or two longer. Tilt the pan and roll the omelet out onto a plate.

Steps:
- Wash spinach leaves well-remove stems and slice leaves very thin; set aside.
- Whip the cream cheese with lemon juice and zest if using; set aside.
- Dice onion or shallot; set aside.
- In a large skillet over medium heat melt 2 tbsp of the butter.
- Add the spinach and onion and sauté for 3-5 minutes. You want the onion slightly translucent and the spinach wilted. Remove from heat and pour into a bowl; set aside.
- Melt the remaining 1-2 tbsp butter in the same pan over medium heat.
- Whip the eggs well with the whole milk and pour into the hot pan.
- Allow eggs to cook slowly, allowing eggs to almost set completely.
- Pour 1/2 the cheese mixture over 1/2 of the omelette, add the spinach onion mixture; sprinkle on the nutmeg, salt and pepper, and the remaining cheese.
- Fold the omelette over, turn off heat and let stand for 3 minutes.
- Serve.
Tips:
- Use fresh spinach for the best flavor and texture.
- If you don't have fresh spinach, you can use frozen spinach. Be sure to thaw and drain it before using.
- Use a non-stick skillet to cook the omelette. This will help prevent it from sticking and breaking.
- Cook the omelette over medium heat. This will help it cook evenly without burning.
- Don't overcook the omelette. It should be cooked through but still slightly runny in the center.
- Serve the omelette immediately with your favorite toppings. Some popular toppings include salsa, guacamole, and sour cream.
Conclusion:
The spinach and cream cheese omelette is a delicious and easy-to-make breakfast or brunch dish. It's packed with protein and vegetables, and it's sure to fill you up and keep you satisfied all morning long.
