Portable Wetern Omelettes
- 12 slices deli ham or prosciutto
- 200g baby spinach leaves, roughly chopped
- 1 small onion, chopped very finely
- 1/2 red bell pepper, chopped very finely
- 1/4 cup green olives, chopped
- 6 eggs, beaten
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 tsp freshly cracked black pepper
- 1/4 tsp freshly grated nutmeg
- 1.Preheat the oven to 375F
- 2.Line each of the 12 cups of a large muffin pan with a slice of ham or prosciutto. Make sure there aren't any holes anywhere or the egg mixture could leak out.
- 3.Throw the spinach in the microwave for about 1 minute or until wilted, then squeeze the heck out of it to remove all excess moisture (you might want to let it cool down for a few minutes before you do that, unless you want to severely burn your fingers!)
- 4.Divide the cooked spinach between the 12 ham lined muffin cups
- 5.Add the chopped onion, bell peppers, green olives, baking soda, black pepper and nutmeg to a mixing bowl. Mix with a spoon until well combined, then add the beaten eggs and resume mixing until well incorporated.
- 6.Pour about 1/4 cup of that mixture right over the spinach. You should have just enough to fill up all 12 cups.
- 7.Bake in a 375F oven for 15 minutes then cool for 5 minutes before removing from the pan.
- 8.These can be served right away but are equally delicious warm and even cold. They also reheat extremely well in the microwave.
