Begin by preparing all your vegetables: chop the bell pepper, slice the mushrooms, finely chop the onion, and rinse the spinach.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the egg whites and low-fat milk. Season with salt and black pepper.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly spray it with olive oil spray.
Add the chopped onions and cook for 2 minutes or until they start to soften.
Add the bell peppers and mushrooms to the skillet and cook for another 3 minutes, until the vegetables are tender.
Stir in the spinach and cook for an additional 1 minute, just until wilted.
Reduce the heat to medium-low and pour the egg white mixture over the sautΓ©ed vegetables.
Cook the egg mixture for about 3 minutes or until the edges start setting. Use a spatula to occasionally lift the edges, allowing the uncooked eggs to flow to the edges.
Sprinkle the shredded low-fat cheddar cheese evenly over one half of the omelet.
Using a spatula, carefully fold the other half of the omelet over the cheese.
Continue cooking for another 2 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the omelet is fully cooked.
Slide the omelet onto a plate, cut it in half, and serve immediately.
