Ingredients

• 4 large eggs equivalent Egg whites
• 1 cup Baby spinach
• 1 cup Mushrooms
• 0.5 cup, chopped Red bell pepper
• 2 tablespoons Low-fat milk
• 1 teaspoon Olive oil
• 0.25 cup, chopped Onion
• 1 clove, minced Garlic
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 tablespoon, chopped Fresh parsley

Directions

Step 1

In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the egg whites and low-fat milk until well combined and a bit frothy.

Step 2

Add the olive oil to a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Once heated, add the onion and sauté for 2-3 minutes or until translucent.

Step 3

Add the minced garlic and chopped mushrooms to the skillet. Cook for another 2-3 minutes until the mushrooms are softened and have released their moisture.

Step 4

Stir in the chopped red bell pepper and baby spinach, cooking until the spinach is wilted, about 1-2 minutes.

Step 5

Pour the egg white mixture evenly over the sautéed vegetables in the skillet. Season with salt and black pepper.

Step 6

Reduce the heat to low and cover the skillet. Allow the omelette to cook for 4-5 minutes, or until the egg whites are set and firm on the surface.

Step 7

Carefully loosen the edges of the omelette with a spatula and fold it in half. Continue to cook for another minute if needed.

Step 8

Slide the omelette onto a plate and garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
