Spray a non-stick skillet lightly with olive oil cooking spray and heat over medium-low heat.
In a small bowl, whisk the egg whites until slightly frothy. Add the taco seasoning and mix well.
Pour the egg whites into the preheated skillet and tilt the pan to spread them in an even layer.
Cook for 3-4 minutes, or until the edges start to lift and the middle is mostly set.
Scatter the diced red onion, black beans, and halved cherry tomatoes over one half of the omelet. Add the shredded low-fat cheddar cheese on top.
Using a spatula, carefully fold the other half of the omelet over the filling. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes to melt the cheese.
Transfer the omelet to a plate and garnish with fresh cilantro, a slice of avocado, and a squeeze of lime juice from the lime wedge.
Serve immediately and enjoy your low-fat taco omelet!
