Omelette In A Bun

School lunches your kids will love! - by Barbara Northwood
  • 03 Apr 2019
Omelette In A Bun
Prep: 5 Minutes - Cook: 20 Minutes - Easy - Serves 3
Proudly supported by

Small children may only need half a bun. You could add a bit of salad if you like and older children may like a touch of salsa or pickle as well.

Ingredients

1 tbsp olive oil

1 medium potato, cut into cubes

1 spring onion, finely sliced

handful baby spinach leaves

4 eggs

9 small cherry tomatoes, halved

handful crumbled feta or grated cheddar

3 rolls

Method

  1. Heat the oil in a small non-stick frying pan and fry the potato over a low heat until it is browned and tender, this
    will probably take about 10 mins in all. Add the spring onion and fry for a minute then stir in the spinach.

  2. Whisk the eggs lightly with a little seasoning and then pour them into the pan and cook until set on the base. Dot on the tomatoes, sprinkle on the cheese and grill until the top browns. Cool a little the n slide out of the pan and cut into thirds.

  3. Split the rolls and stuff them with a piece of omelette, sandwich together and halve. Wrap or put in a lunchbox.
