A classic way to start your day, the egg omelet provides the perfect opportunity to get your leafy greens in early. Most people don't typically have vegetables with their breakfast meal, but this spinach-infused omelet is a fantastic way to start your day off right. Feel free to add other diced vegetables to the spinach. Just sauté them lightly in a little olive oil prior to adding them along with the spinach to the center of the omelet.
