Omeleta is a traditional Greek-style omelet made with Mediterranean ingredients, giving it a distinct and flavorful twist compared to classic omelets. Unlike a typical omelet, the Greek omeleta incorporates local vegetables, cheeses, and sometimes meats directly into the eggs rather than as fillings.

The base is made with whisked eggs seasoned with salt and pepper, and crumbled feta cheese is a common addition, adding a tangy, creamy flavor. Fresh tomatoes, bell peppers, onions, and sometimes zucchini are included, giving the omelet vibrant color and taste, while Kalamata olives contribute a briny depth.

Fresh herbs such as oregano, parsley, or thyme enhance the Mediterranean flavor, and olive oil is used instead of butter for cooking, adding a fruity richness. The vegetables are typically sautéed in olive oil until softened, after which the beaten eggs are poured over to incorporate the cheese and herbs, cooking slowly to allow the flavors to meld.

The Greek omeleta is often enjoyed as a breakfast or light lunch and is served with fresh bread and a side of Greek yogurt or tzatziki.
