Ingredients

  • 4 large Egg whites
  • 0.5 medium Red bell pepper
  • 0.5 medium Yellow bell pepper
  • 1 cup Fresh spinach
  • 6 pieces Cherry tomatoes
  • 2 stalks Green onions
  • 1 teaspoon Olive oil
  • 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
  • 0.25 teaspoon Salt (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Prepare the vegetables: Dice the red and yellow bell peppers, slice the cherry tomatoes in halves, chop the green onions, and rinse the fresh spinach.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, whisk the egg whites with black pepper and salt (if using) until slightly frothy.

Step 3

Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add 1 teaspoon of olive oil, making sure it coats the bottom of the pan evenly.

Step 4

Add the diced bell peppers to the skillet and sauté for 2 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Step 5

Add the cherry tomatoes and green onions, cooking for another 2 minutes until they begin to soften.

Step 6

Add the spinach to the skillet and cook for 1-2 minutes, just until wilted.

Step 7

Evenly spread the cooked vegetables across the skillet, then pour the whisked egg whites over the top.

Step 8

Cook the omelette on medium-low heat for about 3 minutes, or until the egg whites are set and fully cooked. You can cover the skillet with a lid to help speed up the cooking process.

Step 9

Using a spatula, gently fold the omelette in half. Slide it onto a plate and serve immediately.
