Rainbow Harvest Omelette
⏱️ Prep Time: 10 minutes • 🍳 Cook Time: 6 minutes
This Rainbow Harvest Omelette is a colorful, crave-worthy way to load your morning with veggies and protein. With juicy tomatoes, sweet bell peppers, fresh spinach, and melty cheddar, it’s everything I want in a feel-good breakfast. It’s also one of those recipes you can memorize and riff on forever.
Fluffy eggs packed with vibrant veggies, sharp cheddar, and a sprinkle of green onions—this is the breakfast that gets me out of bed.
I first made this on a whim with leftover chopped veggies in my fridge, and it quickly became a weekly staple. It’s hearty enough to keep me full until lunch, but still light and packed with goodness. The green onions add just the right bite, while the melted cheese brings that cozy, comfort-food element that makes it feel special.
You can make it as a classic folded omelette, but I’ve also used this exact combo to make an omelette wrap or even mini muffin-tin frittatas for grab-and-go mornings. Whether you’re making brunch for friends or just need a quick solo breakfast, this recipe checks every box: easy, healthy, and totally customizable.
