Ingredients
- 2 slices whole-grain bread
- 1 piece large egg
- 2 pieces egg whites
- 2 tablespoons low-fat shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 tablespoon skim milk
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon sliced scallions
- 1 spray non-stick cooking spray
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Place the slices of whole-grain bread on the prepared baking sheet.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the whole egg and egg whites until frothy.
Add skim milk, salt, and black pepper to the eggs, and whisk until well combined.
Coat a non-stick skillet with cooking spray and heat it over medium heat.
Pour the egg mixture into the skillet, and gently stir as they cook, forming soft curds. Cook until just set but still slightly runny.
Remove from heat and divide the scrambled eggs evenly over the bread slices.
Sprinkle the low-fat shredded cheddar cheese over the eggs on each slice of bread.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove from the oven and garnish with sliced scallions before serving.
