In a medium bowl, combine 4 egg whites and 1 whole egg. Add 2 tablespoons of skim milk, 0.25 teaspoon of salt, and 0.125 teaspoon of black pepper. Whisk the mixture until it is well blended and uniform.
Peel and pit the avocado. Cut a half into small cubes and gently toss with 0.5 teaspoon of lemon juice to prevent browning. Set aside.
Spray a non-stick skillet lightly with cooking spray and heat over medium-low heat.
Once the skillet is hot, pour in the egg mixture. Allow the eggs to set on the bottom slightly before gently folding them over using a spatula to form soft curds.
Continue to fold the eggs over themselves every few seconds, avoiding any browning. Cook for about 3-4 minutes until the eggs are cooked through but still soft and creamy.
Gently fold in the chopped chives at the last minute of cooking.
Plate the scrambled eggs and top them with the cubed avocado.
Serve immediately for the best flavor and texture.
