Whisk together the egg whites and reduced-fat milk in a small mixing bowl until well combined and slightly frothy. Season with salt and black pepper.
Finely dice the lean ham, green bell pepper, and red onion. Chop the fresh parsley.
Coat a non-stick skillet with a spray of non-stick cooking spray and heat over medium heat.
Add the diced ham, bell pepper, and onion to the skillet and cook for about 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are tender and the ham is heated through.
Pour the egg white mixture into the skillet over the ham and vegetables, tilting the pan to ensure even coverage.
Cook without stirring for about 2-3 minutes, or until the edges of the omelette begin to set.
Using a spatula, gently lift one edge of the omelette to check if the bottom is lightly browned and set. If so, flip the omelette over carefully to cook the other side, about 1-2 minutes.
Once the omelette is fully cooked and slightly golden on both sides, transfer it to a plate.
Sprinkle the chopped parsley over the top of the omelette and serve immediately.
