In a medium bowl, whisk the egg whites until frothy. Season with salt and black pepper and set aside.
Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Add the chopped onion and diced bell pepper to the skillet. Sauté for 3-4 minutes until softened.
Stir in the chopped spinach and halved cherry tomatoes. Cook for an additional 2 minutes until the spinach is wilted and the tomatoes are softened.
Pour the whisked egg whites into the skillet, making sure they cover the vegetables evenly. Cook for 2-3 minutes until the egg whites start to set around the edges.
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over half of the omelette.
Using a spatula, carefully fold the omelette in half. Let it cook for another 2 minutes to melt the cheese.
Transfer the omelette to a plate and garnish with chopped fresh parsley.
Serve immediately and enjoy your protein-packed veggie omelette!
