Crack the whole eggs into a medium bowl and add the egg whites. Whisk together until well combined and slightly frothy.
Season the egg mixture with salt and black pepper, then set aside.
Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the red bell pepper and cook for 2-3 minutes until slightly softened.
Add the spinach leaves to the skillet and sautΓ© until wilted, about 1 minute.
Stir in the diced tomato and scallions, cooking for another 1-2 minutes.
Pour the egg mixture over the vegetables in the skillet. Gently stir with a spatula to distribute the ingredients evenly, then allow the mixture to settle and cook undisturbed for 1-2 minutes until the edges begin to set.
Sprinkle the shredded cheese over the omelette.
Using the spatula, gently fold the omelette in half and continue to cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until the eggs are cooked through and the cheese is melted.
Carefully slide the omelette onto a plate, slice it in half, and serve warm. Enjoy this protein-packed dish as a healthy start to your day or as a post-exercise meal.
