Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large Egg whites
- 2 tablespoons Low-fat milk
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.125 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 cup Chopped fresh spinach
- 0.25 cup Low-fat cheddar cheese
- 4 slices Whole wheat sandwich bread
- 1 as needed Non-stick cooking spray
- 4 slices Tomato slices

Instructions
In a medium bowl, whisk together egg whites, low-fat milk, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
Spray a non-stick skillet with cooking spray and heat over medium heat.
Pour the egg white mixture into the skillet and cook undisturbed for about 2 minutes or until the edges begin to set.
Sprinkle chopped spinach and low-fat cheddar cheese evenly over one-half of the omelette.
Using a spatula, carefully fold the other half of the omelette over the spinach and cheese. Cook for another 2 minutes or until the cheese is melted and the omelette is cooked through.
Meanwhile, toast the whole wheat sandwich bread slices until golden brown.
Place one lettuce leaf and two tomato slices on top of two of the toasted bread slices.
Cut the omelette in half and place each half on top of the tomato slices.
Top with the remaining lettuce leaves and close the sandwiches with the other slices of toasted bread.
Slice each sandwich in half if desired and serve immediately.
