Method
    Sauté the Veggies:
    1. Heat butter in a nonstick frying pan over medium heat. Add the sliced button mushrooms and roughly chopped spinach. Sauté for at least 1 minute, until the spinach wilts and the mushrooms start to soften.
    Add the Eggs:
    1. Pour in the beaten eggs, swirling the pan gently so the eggs cover the veggies evenly.
    Season:
    1. Sprinkle salt and black pepper over the eggs.
    Cook:
    1. Let the omelette cook undisturbed for 1–2 minutes, until mostly set. You can fold it over or just slide it onto a plate as is.
    Serve:
    1. Enjoy hot, straight from the pan!

    2. Spice It Up: Sprinkle chili flakes, paprika, or hot sauce for extra heat.
    3. Veggie Boost: Include diced onions, cherry tomatoes, or bell peppers.
    4. Herb Finish: Top with fresh chives, parsley, or basil for a fresh touch.
