Prepare the vegetables by washing and finely chopping the spinach, quartering the cherry tomatoes, thinly slicing the mushrooms, dicing the red bell pepper, and finely chopping the onion.
In a small bowl, whisk the egg whites until slightly frothy and set aside.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and spray it lightly with olive oil spray.
Add the onions to the skillet and sauté for 2 minutes until softened.
Add the mushrooms, red bell pepper, and cherry tomatoes to the skillet. Cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are tender.
Add the spinach to the skillet and cook for 1-2 minutes, just until wilted.
Evenly spread the cooked vegetables across the skillet, then pour the whisked egg whites over the vegetables, tilting the skillet to ensure the egg whites cover them evenly.
Sprinkle salt and black pepper over the omelette, then reduce the heat to low and cover the skillet. Cook for 3-4 minutes, or until the egg whites are set.
Using a spatula, gently fold the omelette in half and transfer it to a serving plate.
Garnish the omelette with fresh parsley and serve immediately.
