Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 large Egg whites
- 1 large Whole egg
- 2 tablespoons Low-fat milk
- 1 spray Olive oil spray
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
In a medium bowl, whisk together the egg whites, whole egg, low-fat milk, salt, and black pepper until the mixture is frothy and well-combined.
Lightly coat a non-stick skillet (approximately 8 inches wide) with olive oil spray and heat over medium-low heat.
Pour the egg mixture evenly into the skillet, tilting the pan slightly to spread it if necessary.
Cook undisturbed for 3-4 minutes, or until the edges start to set and the middle is still slightly runny.
Using a spatula, gently fold the omelette in half and continue cooking for another 1-2 minutes, or until the eggs are fully cooked through.
Carefully slide the omelette onto a plate and garnish with fresh parsley, if desired.
Serve immediately and enjoy a light, protein-packed meal!
