Dice the onion finely and set aside.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the egg whites and skim milk until frothy. Add the salt and black pepper to the egg white mixture and whisk again.
Spray a non-stick skillet with olive oil cooking spray and heat over medium-low heat.
Add the diced onion to the skillet and sautΓ© for 3-4 minutes until transparent but not browned.
Add the fresh spinach to the onions in the skillet and sautΓ© for another 1-2 minutes until the spinach is wilted.
Pour the egg white mixture over the onion and spinach in the skillet, shaking gently to ensure it spreads evenly.
Cook the omelette for about 4 minutes until the edges start to firm up. Then, gently lift the edges with a spatula, allowing uncooked egg whites to flow beneath.
Once the omelette is mostly set, fold it in half with the spatula.
Continue to cook the omelette for an additional 1-2 minutes to ensure it's fully set.
Slide the omelette onto a plate and serve immediately.
