Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly spray with low sodium olive oil spray.
Add the diced red bell pepper and sliced red onion to the skillet. Sauté for 3-4 minutes until they begin to soften.
Add the fresh spinach to the skillet and cook for another 2 minutes until the spinach is wilted. Remove the veggie mixture from the skillet and set aside.
In a bowl, whisk the egg whites with black pepper and garlic powder until frothy.
Return the skillet to medium heat and lightly spray again with olive oil spray. Pour in the egg whites, allowing them to cook undisturbed for 1-2 minutes, then gently stir and continue cooking for another 3-4 minutes, until they are fully set.
While the egg whites are cooking, split the whole grain English muffins and lightly toast them to your preference.
Assemble the sandwich by placing a third of the scrambled egg whites onto the bottom half of each toasted English muffin.
Top the egg whites with a portion of the sautéed vegetable mixture, then cover with the top half of the English muffin.
Serve immediately, enjoying the fresh flavors and hearty bite of this low sodium breakfast option.
