In a medium bowl, combine 4 large egg whites with 2 tablespoons of non-fat milk. Whisk until the mixture is frothy and uniform in texture.
Finely chop 1 tablespoon of fresh chives, 1 tablespoon of fresh parsley, and 1 teaspoon of fresh basil. Add them to the egg white mixture.
Season the mixture with 0.25 teaspoon of salt and 0.125 teaspoon of black pepper, then whisk again until well combined.
Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat and lightly coat with non-stick cooking spray.
Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and let it sit, without stirring, for about 30 seconds. This allows the eggs to start setting on the bottom.
Using a spatula, gently stir the eggs from the edges towards the center, allowing the uncooked eggs to flow to the edges. Continue gently stirring occasionally until the eggs are just set but still slightly runny, about 3-4 minutes.
Remove the eggs from the heat and let them rest for a few seconds to finish cooking from residual heat.
Serve immediately, garnished with a few extra fresh herbs if desired.
