Heat 1 teaspoon of olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Add the lean ground pork to the skillet. Cook and stir for about 4-5 minutes until the pork is browned and cooked through. Drain any excess fat.
Add the chopped red bell pepper to the cooked pork and sauté for an additional 2 minutes until the pepper is slightly softened.
Stir in the chopped green onions and spinach leaves. Cook for 1 minute until the spinach wilts. Remove the filling from the skillet and set aside.
In a large bowl, whisk the egg whites with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder until well combined and slightly frothy.
Pour the egg whites into the same skillet over medium heat. Let it cook for about 1 minute, gently pushing the edges toward the center with a spatula for even cooking.
When the omelette begins to set, sprinkle the shredded low-fat cheddar cheese over half of it.
Add the pork and vegetable mixture onto the cheese layer.
Carefully fold the omelette in half over the filling and cook for another 1-2 minutes to melt the cheese and heat the filling through.
Slide the omelette onto a plate and cut in half to serve.
