Egg-White Omelet With Vegetable-Cheddar Filling

With this quick recipe, there's no excuse not to have a healthy breakfast.

You Will Need

  • 3 large egg whites

  • 1 teaspoon water

  • 2 teaspoons chopped fresh dill (optional)

  • 1/8 teaspoon salt

  • 1/8 teaspoon freshly ground pepper

  • 1/2 cup loosely packed, thinly sliced fresh spinach

  • 1 plum tomato, chopped

  • 2 tablespoons shredded nonfat cheddar cheese Vegetable cooking spray

What to Do

1. Whisk egg whites, water, dill (if using), salt, and pepper together in a medium bowl until soft peaks form. Toss spinach, tomato, and cheddar together in a small bowl.

2. Lightly coat an omelet pan or small skillet with cooking spray and heat over medium heat 1 minute. Pour egg mixture into pan and cook until eggs begin to set on bottom.

3. Spread filling over half of omelet, leaving a 1/2-inch border and reserving 1 tablespoon mixture for garnish. Lift up omelet at edge nearest handle and fold in half, slightly off-center, so filling peeks out. Cook 2 minutes. Slide omelet onto a serving plate and garnish with reserved filling.
